Top stuff, Amy.
Afternoon all, a tad breezy in Southampton, eh? I’ve been blown away by some of your Wind XI suggestions. Sam Northeast-early has to be my favourite. Keep ‘em coming.
A good start for the hosts. As the players munch down their lunch, we'll take a look at the best of this morning's session.

Not a bad morning's play, I'd say?
I'm off for a bit. It'll be Kal Sajad to take you through to tea.

End of twitter postLunch: Eng 91-2published at 13:04 British Summer Time 21 August 2020
A good morning session for England, although Pakistan came back well in the second hour.
50 for Crawleypublished at 28 overs
And a lovely drive for four brings Zak Crawley his half-century!
He's played terrifically so far, notching seven fours in his 80-ball 50. He can go into lunch with a smile on his face.

Former Pakistan all-rounder on Test Match SpecialThe last 20 minutes has been good for Pakistan, bringing the run-rate down. They've bowled with more control and a disciplined line and length.

Can Zak Crawley get to his half-century before lunch?
He's got two more deliveries to see off...

It'll be Shaheen Afridi to bowl the final over before lunch.

Former Pakistan all-rounder on Test Match SpecialIf Pakistan take another wicket then it is an even session. But otherwise, England are on top. They were proactive, made some good decisions, especially against Yasir Shah.

Joe Root finally gets a couple of runs off Yasir Shah, courtesy of a quick push and scamper down the pitch.

Zak Crawley bats like Joe Root used to. Future England captain.

BBC Test Match SpecialCrawley went for that big, booming drive. Shaheen Afridi with the moral victory there by drawing in that shot.
Eng 85-2published at 26 overs
With five minutes or so until lunch, Zak Crawley leaves and defends his way through the first half of Shaheen Afridi's over.
The fourth ball draws a horrible, loose drive, Crawley's patience just fading on him, and it almost results in a third wicket for Pakistan.

Former Pakistan all-rounder on Test Match SpecialJoe Root needs to be careful. Yasir Shah got him in the first Test in similar fashion. It was too close to cut.
Eng 85-2published at 25 overs
And again!
Joe Root, trying that little guide down to third man, almost edges behind for the second time in the over. Hmm.
Eng 85-2published at 24.5 overs
Oh, perilously close for Joe Root!
He goes back, close to his stumps, trying a cut shot, and narrowly avoids nicking through to Mohammad Rizwan. That was the exact shot that did for him in Manchester in the first Test.

Here's how Dom Sibley's innings came to an end.

BBC Test Match SpecialPakistan need to tighten the screws a little bit. They'd like to get one more wicket before lunch to get things a bit more even.

Shaheen Afridi is going to replace Naseem Shah.
