    Mohammad Rizwan is back on, and behind the stumps.

    The leg-spin of Shadab Khan is back on to bowl out too.

    Pakistan were full of energy earlier, diving in the field. But it's all gone a bit flat out there now.

  3. Eng 224-7published at 39 overs

    Pakistan were all over England 12 overs ago. They were buzzing around in the field, making noise, but it's all very quiet at the moment.

    Another excellent bit of running sees Lewis Gregory turn a single into a couple.

    The hosts are edging towards a competitive score.

    We've had a change in wicketkeeper. Sarfaraz Ahmed has come out but I'm not sure what's happened to Mohammad Rizwan.

    Ermmm. Pakistan keeper Mohammad Rizwan has gone off, we presume for a toilet break.

    Sarfaraz Ahmed - Pakistan's 2017 Champions Trophy-winning trophy - is on.

    Could Pakistan have been a bit more aggressive and ruthless before this partnership got settled?

  7. Eng 219-7published at 38 overs

    Gregory 34, Carse 25

    Some positive strokes from England in that over, as Lewis Gregory whips through mid-wicket for three, before Brydon Carse carves down to third for a single.

    An excellent drop-and-run single ends the over and sees Lewis Gregory keep the strike.

    This is now an England eighth-wicket record partnership at Lord's.

    Misha: If these lads can keep it ticking over, 260 is on the cards. Not an objectively great score, but in the context, it’d swing the momentum back just a bit.

  9. Eng 214-7published at 37.1 overs

    A dreadful ball to start. Too short, and down the leg side, and Lewis Gregory just pulls it fine for four more.

    He's up to 30.

    The good thing for England and Chris Silverwood in this situation is that they are getting a look at young players in pressure situations.

  11. Postpublished at 15:14 British Summer Time 10 July 2021

    A change of ends for Faheem Ashraf.

  12. Eng 210-7published at 37 overs

    Gregory 26, Carse 24

    Lewis Gregory keeps the strike with a single to mid off.

    This partnership is worth exactly 50 now. The Lord's crowd and Chris Silverwood applaud.

    It's a nice paced pitch, it's not quick by any means but he's picked the length so well.

  14. Eng 209-7published at 36.3 overs

    Some extravagant movement off the pitch draws a thick inside edge from Lewis Gregory. But, fortunately for him, and England, it cannons into his pads rather than the stumps.

    That's a nice shot, though. It's not even that short from Haris Rauf but Gregory pulls him to the boundary. He's grown into this innings.

  15. Postpublished at 15:10 British Summer Time 10 July 2021

    Haris Rauf is back on.

    He's gone for 33 in his first four overs.

    This is a really impressive partnership. They've rotated the strike and put away any loose ball.

  17. Eng 203-7published at 36 overs

    Lovely! A tad too full from Shaheen Afridi and Brydon Carse flicks him beautifully, up the hill, to the mid-wicket boundary.

    This partnership is worth a really useful 43 now.

    England will be delighted if they can bat through. Anything over 230 and it's game on. They already bowled out Pakistan in the last game so will believe they can do it.

  19. Eng 196-7published at 35 overs

    Gregory 20, Carse 17

    We know Lewis Gregory is more than capable with the bat, and he picks up two more with another lovely drive.

    Brydon Carse looks no mug either. He did start off as a batter, before honing his bowling in the last four or five years.

    Maybe Pakistan just missed a trick by not getting Shaheen on a little bit earlier.
