BBC Test Match SpecialWoakes basically had a free hit. He didn't get the distance.

Woakes c Iftikhar Ahmed b Haris Rauf 10 (Eng 131-7)
Chris Woakes with a one-bounce four down the ground, before he attempts to go big to Haris Rauf again off the final ball of the over. This time he is only able to hit it skyward and Iftikhar Ahmed scuttles round at long-on to claim the catch.
Eng 126-6published at 18.4 overs
Moeen Ali up to 44 now. A slower ball from Haris Rauf hits him on the pad and England scramble a leg bye.
Babar Azam fiddles with his field.

England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialMoeen always targets the start of an over because it can take a bit of pressure off.
Eng 124-6published at 18.2 overs
Moeen Ali is expecting a short ball from Haris Rauf, and baseball style cracks it over mid-wicket for a maximum.
22 off 10.

BBC Test Match SpecialThis is a massive over.
Eng 118-6published at 18.0 overs
Strange end to the over.
Chris Woakes attempts to paddle. Pakistan appeal. Then appeal some more. Then appeal again. For a caught behind. Then they don't review it.
TV replays show Woakes did not get any bat on it.
28 off 12.

England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialThey don't let you take the stumps after a win nowadays because they are an expensive bit of kit.
Eng 118-6published at 17.5 overs
Chris Woakes digs out a yorker and looks to pinch a single. A direct hit from the fielder with the throw keeps him honest, and the ball breaks the stump in half.
It's the stump with the microphone and camera in and there's wires hanging loose and all sorts of other gizmos.

England bowler on BBC Test Match SpecialThat is how quickly a game can changed. It looks getable again.

Back-to-back boundaries as Moeen Ali creams Mohammad Wasim through point. That went like a rocket.

BBC Test Match SpecialThat is as straight as you can get.
Eng 113-6published at 17.2 overs
Effortless hitting from Moeen Ali as he cleanly strikes Mohammad Wasim right back over his head. He barely seemed to hit that and it's gone the whole way and some.
