The English Edge Blunted at Lord's The second Test between England and Pakistan at Lord's has seen a dramatic reversal of fortunes for Joe Root's side, who were reduced to 248 9 by stumps on the first day.
Overcast conditions seemed to have given Pakistan an edge, allowing their bowlers to swing the ball and extract some life out of a normally docile pitch.
England's top order struggled from the start, with only Jamie Smith and Jordan Cox managing half centuries.
