2nd Test: August 27-31 from 11am BST / 6am ET daily
Watch England vs Pakistan live streams as the 2nd Test of the three-match Test series gets underway at Lord's, London. The first match was hardly a competition as the English bowlers, especially Ollie Robinson and Josh Tongue, who both took 8-fers, ran riot against an inexperienced Pakistani batting lineup. The visitors put up a sorry show with the bat as England won by an innings and 103 runs.
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. But, if there’s anywhere the Pakistani team would like to be after such a disappointing start, it is Lord's. They’ve won 5 matches here, including both of the last two games played between the two sides.
Mohammad Abbas was the hero of the 2018 win, picking up 8 scalps, and he’ll look to do something similar to turn his side’s fortune around. Another piece of good news for the visitors is the return of their captain, Babar Azam, after he missed the first game due to a finger injury. Azan Awais should make way for him.
The Poms, though brilliant in the first match, have found themselves surrounded by yet another off-field club-related controversy, this time as Brydon Carse was handcuffed following an incident outside a nightclub in Derby. Pending an investigation by the ECB, Carse has been sidelined for the second game, with Sonny Baker named as his replacement.
But captain Root won’t likely make any changes to the playing XI, with their fast-bowling quartet of Jofra Archer, Gus Atkinson, Josh Tongue, and Ollie Robinson all in-form and delivering wickets.
