England win the toss and will bowl 1st.

Be an interesting day, can we emulate the Windies and bowl them for just over a hundred....

Looking forward to this.

Englands bowling has been a little off line for me and we are giving them to many easy runs. Would do well to keep it less than 300

They need at least 350 to make a game of this imo

England brought the scoring back under control...

Moeen bowling well with 2 wickets ... bloody hell Jason Roy drops a skyer catch

Could be a tough chase later,but it a good track for batting so England will feel confident whatever the target.

At last Moeen comes to the party,can't drop catches like that J Roy :roll: .Owes his teammates big runs now.

Could be a turning point another wicket there and England would be slightly on top.

Archer back into the attack need some magic from him.

Hi scoring is the norm at TB, England will feel they can chase this down.

Normally you'd back England to chase 350 at Trent Bridge,but the leggies causing problems already,Root dropped on 9 could be a vital moment,should have taken that really.

England 60/2 after 9 overs. Need a partnership from Morgan & Root

Chucker gets Morgan out. England struggling at 86-3.

Morgan needs his eyes testing l. Getting bowled out by a straight one at 50 mph is not the stuff of internationals.

Stokes gone....118 for 4!

Root has to convert today and anchor the innings,no good getting to 50 and getting out as he often does.

Stokes gone for 13,big wicket that,i'd make Pakistan favourites now.

118-4 in the 22nd over,just need to play sensible cricket for 10 overs or so and build a partnership.

Keep the rate below 10 for as long as possible and keep Buttler in and England have a real chance.

Shame. Would've been cool to see you get the highest run chase.

Back to cricket being boring.

Superb cricket from Wahab at the end.

I blame Jason Roy and expect him to be towel whipped mercilessly in the dressing room.

Typical England. Can’t do it when it counts. Root and Buttler played for themselves, got their hundreds and got out. Poor day for England

Pakistan always seem to be like this. Either brilliant or hopeless, no in between. They could just as easily go and lose to Afghanistan now.

We lost that game through poor fielding.

If we hold onto regulation catches and avoid brainless misfielding we win comfortably.

A blip.

Poor fielding and not putting pressure on their fielders by strolling singles .Ali bowled well but his innings cost us.
