    It is about restoring a bit of pride for Pakistan. They are likely to be on a plane home tomorrow so will want to make the most of their time in the middle and enjoy batting at a beautiful ground.

    I had Pakistan as my most-improved team, but, however... does today just show how important the three messing players are?

  9. Pak 19-3published at 5 overs

    Shot. New batter Nida Dar gets off the mark, pulling Nat Sciver-Brunt for four for Pakistan's second boundary.

    Next ball and Nida is beaten for pace. England are well on top.

    England want to entertain and be relaxed and they are today. They will have more challenging days but they can just go out and enjoy their day with their mates today.

    That was too full to sweep.

    It was quicker and flatter from Charlie Dean.

    England are going to win this game by a long, long way.

    Muneeba c Jones b Dean 3 (Pak 15-2)

    Ooooh. KSB's over finishes with Muneeba edging the ball high but just out of reach of the bowler.

    The problem with Katherine Sciver-Brunt will become her body. She has had three back surgeries and after the second she was told she was going to have stop playing cricket and she said 'no I'm not, I'm going to get fitter and stronger'.

  20. Pak 10-1published at 2.3 overs

    Katherine Sciver-Brunt continues. Her first three balls are dots.
