Pakistan v England: second men’s cricket Test, day three – live

The state of play

England will resume on 239 for 6, still 127 runs behind, after losing four wickets in an exhilarating final hour that changed the mood of the whole series.

That's a big deficit on an crumbling pitch, especially as England have to bat last, so the morning session could be pivotal. It feels like England need to get to within 50 of Pakistan to have a realistic chance of victory.

Share Updated at 06.19 CEST Pakistan Men's National Selection Committee: An Apology Between 13 and 16 October 2024, The Guardian published a series of s which made erroneous observations about the group selecting the Pakistan men's cricket team:

    That in the last four years the selection committee has had more members than The Fall.

    That their pivot from a pace-dominated bowling attack to picking seven spinners was less a volte face, more a volte farce.

    That replacing Pakistan's best player with an uncapped 29-year-old was the essence of madness.

    That you could leave them alone in a brewery for 48 hours and they would emerge sober, whistling Happy Go Lucky Me.

    That they are unable to distinguish between their elbow and their hindquarters.

This was a collective failure of process and we apologise for any offence caused.
