Pakistan reduce England to 80-4 at lunch after winning the toss at Lord's
Pakistan won the toss and exploited the conditions to reduce England to 80 for 4 at lunch on day one of the second Test at Lord's. BBC Sport reported Pakistan made full use of the morning session to put England on the defensive early in the match. The early collapse leaves England with work to do to recover a competitive position, while Pakistan enter the second session well placed to build a first-innings advantage.
Downunder Voices perspective
Why this matters
England must rebuild steadily from 80-4 if they are to post a competitive first-innings total.
