BBC Test Match Special commentatorMark Wood has now got Babar Azam out twice in two attempts.
Babar looked a bit out of sorts in that innings.

Babar c Duckett b Wood 9 (Pak 17-1)
Speed! This is Mark Wood hurling the ball down and unsettling one of the world's great batters. Babar tries to pull the Durham speedster but cannot control his shot. He skews the ball out to the deep square leg boundary where Ben Duckett snaffles the catch.
Big wicket.

An early change from England.
It's time for some supercharged rockets from Mark Wood...
Pak 13-0published at 2 overs
Babar 8, Rizwan 3
But even with those wides it's a decent enough start from left-armer Willey. Six from the over. England will take that.
Pak 11-0published at 1.3 overs
David Willey goes for the stumps with a left-footed side-foot as Pakistan steal a single. Let's just say Gareth Southgate won't be picking him on this evidence, even if he's a right-back.
Willey is trying to deny Babar room to free his arms but concedes a couple of wides in the process.

It'll be David Willey from the other end.
Pak 7-0published at 1 overs
Shot.
Woakes bowls two good deliveries, one of which beats Babar's edge, but the Pakistan captain follows up with an on-drive to the fence.
A textbook start.
Pak 1-0published at 0.1 overs
Woakes' first delivery is on leg stump and Mohammad Rizwan flicks him for a single. Woakes' beard has not become any less immaculate while he has been away.

Chris Woakes is going to open the bowling in his first professional game for six months.
The ground is yet to fill up but I'm told this is a sell out.

We're all set.
Bets on many Babar and Rizwan are going to put on today?
250?

Mark Wood, speaking to Sky Sports: "I missed the last game as a precaution. Obviously I'm just back and didn't want to play back to back while trying to get my match fitness to ensure I peak when it comes to Australia and the World Cup. Hopefully, I can charge in again today.
"It's great for us to be going to a World Cup learning from positions in tight games. Down the order in the World Cup we know there might be match when the lower order might have to get us over the line."
On ground conditions after heavy rain: "We are here to play and fantastic credit to the groundstaff. When the game starts our match heads will be on. Will it affect the fielding with the ball slowing up? We'll weigh that up."

Those in Lahore tell us there was a lot of rain in Lahore last night so the outfield is a little soft.
No injuries today, please...

This is Chris Woakes' first England appearance since the third Test against West Indies in March because of knee and ankle issues.
He's part of the World Cup squad so England will be hoping he comes through well tonight.

Pakistan captain Babar Azam: "We are also bowling first if we had won the toss, so now we are looking to score 160/170 I think.
"Definitely we are doing some positive things, but also need to step up well for the World Cup. We need to utilise these last two games well."

England captain Moeen Ali: "We are going to have a bowl. It looks a good wicket and I don't think that's going to change. The outfield is a little slow but that's it.
"You want to win the game first of all. We want to give players a chance but winning is the most important thing. It has been a fantastic series so far, very entertaining.
"Pakistan are a fantastic team. Since T20 started they have always been a good side and you have to be on your A game against them."
