    MIkey Smith: Playing for the local team, walking in with hands on my hips when a ball was hit straight at me. Right in the stomach.

    Brit61: Fielding deep cover in Bagshot. Watched the ball all the way into my glasses. Didn't lay a finger on it. Impressive stitches!

    Garry Pearce: Staff v 1st XI. Teacher who made my life hell for six years is on five. I'm grinning at him as simple catch comes my way. He made 100+.

    If you are just joining us, here is the best of what you have missed so far...

  3. Drinks break

    Eng 98-1

    Wahab doesn't learn his lesson as he digs in another short ball that Hales helps to the rop at deep backward square. That's drinks.

    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    I was shocked by how Hales played at Lord's but this has been a great comeback for him. It will feed his confidence. Wahab is fielding like a petulant teenager and bowling like a good old-fashioned fast bowler.

    50 for Hales

    Eng 92-1

    Wahab returns and Hales gets stuck in with a pull shot to fine leg for four. 50 up.

    Ex-England spinner on BBC Test Match Special

    The main focus on a tour was always the Test matches, especially for me. Then the one-dayers would start and you'd think 'when is that flight home?' That was at a time when England were dreadful at one-day cricket. We had a dreadful attitude and technique towards the game.

    Dave Shelton: Official Best Player (drunk) dives far too early. Comes to dead halt. Ball passes a good yard from his outstretched hand for four.

    Daniel Rollison: Ball hit past cover, he starts chasing, stops believing it has gone for four, only for ball to come to rest just inside the rope.

    James: Surely the Tufnell non run-out v Australia is the worst international fielding of all time.

  8. Eng 88-1

    Nawaz is doing a very economical job for Pakistan. He has hit a good rhythm right from the off. he is also chucking in the odd hand grenade, including one this over which pitches on middle and spins past Root's edge and off stump. A beauty.

    As an excitable 16-year-old promoted to the first team I dropped the easiest catch I have seen then or since and I am 45 now. Standing at silly mid-off (lack of health and safety regs then) they were nine down. Ball popped off the glove in the slowest arc to my waiting hands. Unfortunately I had already caught the catch in my head and turned round to celebrate the victory. Stony silence as the ball hit the ground.

    Beautiful shot from Root, who drops to one knee and spank-sweeps Yasir's second delivery to the rope. He follows it later in the over with a reverse sweep - equally classy - for one. Joe has faced 23 balls and is going along at 100 strike-rate without breaking sweat. Is there a more efficient run-maker in world cricket than the Yorkshireman?

    Whilst bowling I watched the batsman push the ball towards point. It got through his long barrier to allow the single, he ambled after it to invite the second so he could try for the run out, and when they went for it he hurled the ball in equidistant from either end. They completed the second before it crossed the boundary for four buzzers giving six for a push to point.

    Big appeal from Sarfraz and bowler Nawaz as the ball strikes Hales. The fact he is looking to turn the ball to leg tells you that the ball was going down. Not out.

    You always have your heart in your mouth when Hales goes on one knee to slog sweep across the line. He didn't connect with it fully but it's gone to the boundary.

    Dan Gee: Nominating my brother. Two weeks before his wedding he tried to catch a ball, went through his hands, broke his eye socket!

    Leigh Baker: Fielded at long on, ran round to cut it off. As I got to the ball I went down in stages and kicked the ball over the boundary.

    Karl Bates: Should have been a dolly catch for team-mate... one slight problem, Goffy was off the pitch queuing at ice cream van.

    The binary cricket is brought to an end by a big slog sweep from Hales for four. It is a brave shot and it brings reward. 

    OK Alex, calm down now son. Next ball, he dances down, swings wildly and is lucky to get a small inside edge to prevent the ball beating him. A stumping (if not a clean bowling) would surely have followed.

    PitchedOutsideLeg: Played on Lake District pitch, ball landed in cowpat. Skipper refused to pick up. Went for trowel. They ran nine.

    There's plenty of Pakistan cricketers that they can build a side around, Sarfraz is one of them, Yasir another. However they are playing catch-up like England were a year ago.

  18. Eng 71-1

    Turn. Proper turn. Hales' soft hands save him as Nawaz's ball catches an edge and falls just short of the man at slip. The spinners are dragging England back a bit after that rapid start.

    The "comedian" Lennie Bennett lost about 23 teeth in a televised charity game when he elected to try and catch a steepler in his mouth.

    Pakistan engaging in some serious pack shuffling at the moment as Yasir Shah comes in to the attack after the single over from Wahab. Hales and Root continue their patient assessment of spin by working the ball around for a series of singles. They do right - very dangerous customer is Yasir.
