How can you bowl 42 overs of spin, have the extra half an hour, and still not get in the 90 overs?

Cos the weather were plus 30 degree all day. I think we did well on a flat pitch which offered very little..

[Dreams of 1995]

The weather isn’t helping but my gosh the pitches in Pakistan are a bad do

Too easy for the batters. Makes quite a boring spectacle really

It is on the bucket list to watch England play abroad in every major country. Pakistan may be one I miss……

Congratulations to Joe Root, newly crowned as English cricket’s highest number of runs amassed in test matches.

And just like that he’s now 100+ runs ahead of Cook.

33 years old. He could add a lot more yet if he has the drive.

[ABBEY]

Joe Root and Harry Brook. Excellent knocks tbf.

[K-Hod]

Some total, this! Jesus.

[Tyrone Shoelaces]

When I saw Pakistan’s first innings score I thought - Well that’s not going to be a losing score “. 

[47er]

What's most astonishing is the rate at which we scored---only one maiden over in the entire innings!

Pakistan could end up losing after a seemingly unbeatable 500+ first innings.

This Test will go down in history whatever happens from now.

[K-Hod]

Was hoping for 4 figures...... 

(I jest, but could you imagine?)

[ABBEY]

if England get this last wicket ..highest innings defeat with highest 1st inning total ever.(Pakistans total)

[47er]

Shahidi out---brilliant caught and bowled from Leach. Only one wicket to go.

Its all over!!!!! What a win!

[K-Hod]

Won by an innings and 47 runs, an absolute massacre.

Fair play to England, that's an unbelievable result. Particularly when Pakistan's total was actually a good one!

[chaddyrovers]

Great test win on a flat pitch. 

Root and Brook batting, the tempo of their innings and how to play in those conditions were great

[chaddyrovers]

Stokes is back in the team. 

Atkinson and Woakes rested. 

Potts recalled. 

Pakistan seemed to have a complete overhaul of their squad
