  1. Here is that Joe Root catch/drop from earlier.

    Should this be out or not out?

  2. Ebony Rainford-Brent
    Ex-England women's batter on Test Match Special

    Pakistan, with an extra 10mph up their sleeves, will feel there is a lot still in this game.

  3. Not out

    There was a healthy inside edge on that.

    As Simon says, I think it was more a speculative gamble from Joe Root.

  4. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    Root thinking two wickets left and three reviews left it might be worth it.

  5. England review

    Ohh, with two seconds left Joe Root decides to send an lbw appeal against Mohammad Abbas upstairs.

    There were two noises - did he hit it?

  6. Not out

    Yep, he's comfortably home.

  7. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    They are going to review it but no real interest from England. A direct hit would have been out.

  8. Umpire review

    Tailenders and quick runs don't mix well at all, do they?

    Mohammad Abbas is desperate to get Mohammad Rizwan back on strike so he goes hurtling down the track after hitting straight to Stuart Broad at mid-on.

    Jos Buttler whips off the bails but is he home?

    Jack Counsell: Domty Rhodes.

    Steve Briddon: Dom Sibley IS Buddy the Elf in disguise!

  10. Pak 180-8

    Shot!

    Mohammad Rizwan has decided it's time to tee off I think. He takes a step down the pitch and hoicks Chris Woakes behind square for a one-bounce four.

    That does leave Mohammad Abbas on strike for the next over though...

  11. We've got a delay because Mohammad Rizwan has nipped to the loo.

    Going back to the presidential suite chat at 15:17, I'm informed by a colleague that used to work at the Lowry hotel in Manchester that the captain got the best room so Joe Root is enjoying the king size bath and bed at the Ageas Bowl.

  12. Dom Sibley is having a laugh about that run-out with Rory Burns and Joe Root in the slip cordon now.

  13. Simon Mann
    BBC Test Match Special

    It was a really strange one. England were appealing for the lbw. It would have been four overthrows if it had not been out.

    WICKET

    Shaheen run out (Sibley) 0 (Pak 176-8)

    Dom Sibley ran out Asad Shafiq in the first Test and he's back at it again.

    It's poor from Shaheen Afridi to be honest. Mohammad Rizwan is hit on the thigh pad and England are appealing for lbw and the left-arm bowler sets off a run from the non-striker's end and Sibley, at third step, collects the ball and his direct hit leaves Shaheen well short of his ground.

  15. Stuart Broad went and reserved that when he was left out of the first West Indies Test.

  16. Matthew Henry
    BBC Sport at the Ageas Bowl

    Ashley Giles is here, watching the game from his balcony.

    It doesn't look like he's been given the presidential suite, which I was told is at the other end of the hotel.

    If not the director of cricket, who gets that suite? Joe Root as skipper? Jimmy Anderson as the elder statesman and most experienced player?

  17. Aatif Nawaz
    BBC Test Match Special

    Root muted his celebrations as if he wasn't quite sure.

  18. Not out

    Pak 176-7

    Hmm, the third umpire has decided that the ball has hit the ground once it has burst through Joe Root's hands.

    The England skipper is not amused at all.

  19. Mark Ramprakash
    Ex-England batsman on BBC Test Match Special

    At first look I thought it was pretty obvious but now....

  20. It looks like it's carried but it has burst Joe Root's hands which might mean it hits the ground.

    Are his fingers always underneath the ball?
