Brook as talented as Pietersen but not ready to be captain - Agnew

Stuart Broad has commented on TV that England scoring 400 feels above par. According to CricViz's metric, which is similar to the xG model in football, the hosts should be 238-9 at present, suggesting they really have done well to get where they are.
Josh Tongue grins his way through three dot balls before lofting Muhammad Abbas down the ground for four. Huge beam and a little giggle. 400 up for England.

What I like about Josh Tongue, he's always smiling when he's batting.

Pakistan's seamers are swinging the ball more than twice as much as England's seamers did (1.2° v 0.5°), but aren’t challenging the stumps enough, with just 10% of deliveries on a stump line compared to 15% from England.
Sharp running from Jofra Archer, pushing into the covers and beating the throw as he stampedes back for a second run. A streaky edged boundary through third takes England to 399-9.
Archer is unbeaten on a run-a-ball 22.

Smith c Masood b Shahzad 25 (Eng 392-9)
Hmmm, disappointing exit for Jamie Smith, skying a simple catch to Shan Masood at mid-wicket.
He departs for 25 (52). England lead by 221 runs.

That is a horrible piece of fielding, 1970s throwback there.
That reminded me of my fielding.
Jofra Archer is in the mood, dispatching Muhammad Abbas' final delivery to the rope for four. Little effort from Mohammad Ali to chase it down.
Seven from it.

Re: Tobias @ 11:06. You're never too old for an Otley Run. Start early and pace yourself is my advice.

My seven-year-old son is a very big fan of The Hundred and is now dipping his toe into Test cricket. On the phone last night I had to field questions from a little boy whose first exposure to the game is limited-overs cricket. "Why is there no powerplay? Why are they playing with a red ball? Why are there so many wicketkeepers? (He meant the slip fielders) Why did Pakistan not have more fielders on the boundary?"
Khurram Shahzad oversteps - his fourth no ball and Pakistan's sixth.
Jamie Smith and Jofra Archer are content to trot three singles before Archer pounds the final delivery of the over into the stands, swivelling as he takes on the short ball. SIX.

Image source, Getty ImagesIf England could have everything go their way, they'd probably want a lead of 250.
Muhammad Abbas bowls one more delivery before Pakistan take the new ball. Enough is enough.
Five from the over. England's lead is up to 204.

Instead of hoping for rain, Tobias, how about a solid performance from Pakistan with the bat so you get to watch a thrilling day four chase instead? Positive thinking.
Jamie Smith and Jofra Archer trade three singles, the latter getting off the mark off his ninth delivery.

Is it bad if I want it to rain today as I have day four tickets? If it doesn’t rain, does anyone have any ideas what I could do in Leeds tomorrow?

Pakistan have started with spin straight away. Ali Usman did cause some trouble last night for England. He completely deceived two set batsmen yesterday.
A bit of early movement for Muhammad Abbas, getting one to beat Jamie Smith's outside edge. Smith later takes a single.
Spinner Ali Usman will be hoping to add to his 5-92 at the other end.
