Everyone is saying England batted poorly but i think they did good as these guys know that only way they could put pressure on opposition by playing attacking cricket.
Despite losing quick wickets Poms still made a good total at very fast run rate, i reckon it's a competitive total on this surface.
The only problem would be they don't have the quality of Abrar on their spin attack.
Pakistan played their magic today through Abrar Ahmed who took 7 wickets and saved the day for Pakistan (at least for now). Without him, England would have been looking at 500+ total.
I would like to see how Pakistan batsmen play today and tomorrow. The wickets seem good for batting but it was Abrar Ahmed's spell that made England lose all their wickets. Or maybe they came out to score fast and did not have any Plan B, in case they lost quick wickets.
