Watch England vs Pakistan live streams as the 2nd Test at Lord's, London, of the three-match Test series looks like it's going to be another easy win for the hosts after last week's innings-and-103-run victory. At the end of day three, which only had 25 overs due to rain, England are 177-7 and a total of 357 runs ahead after securing a massive 180-run lead in the first innings.
Captain Babar Azam won the toss and chose to bowl first under overcast skies, a decision that looked like it was paying off as England were 222-8 at one point on day one. However, thanks to handy contributions from Gus Atkinson and Josh Tongue, England made 290.
Pakistan's batting continued to struggle. They were bowled out for a mere 110, with Ollie Robinson, Jofra Archer, and Josh Tongue picking up four, three, and two wickets, respectively. The only highlight for Pakistan was young opener Azan Awais, who held up one end and scored 46 runs.
At the end of day three, Dan Lawrence is unbeaten on 50 alongside Ollie Robinson on 2, and although it's already more than enough runs to win, the hosts would be looking to push past 400 and thoroughly bat out the visitors.
Pakistan, meanwhile, would want the remaining three wickets cheaply, but Robinson, Atkinon, Archer, and Tongue can all bat. Mohammad Abbas, who picked up four wickets in the first innings, has picked up three again so far, alongside Mohammad Ali's three scalps in the first innings and two now.
Pakistan are 7th in the ICC’s Test rankings, and they've only won one away Test – in the West Indies – in the last three years. Although they have a fantastic record at Lord's, winning five matches here, including both of the last two games played between the two sides, the current side has no fangs. Michael Vaughan on air called them "the easiest batting lineup to bowl to" and even compared them to second-division county cricket.
