LONDON, Aug 28 : Josh Tongue struck with the last ball before lunch to leave Pakistan reeling on 16-2 in reply to England’s 290 all out on the second day of the second test at Lord’s on Friday.
Tongue had earlier scored an impressive 30 not out in a last-wicket stand of 47 with Gus Atkinson to frustrate Pakistan and boost England from their overnight 248-9.
Pakistan faced an awkward hour before the lunch break and struggled as England’s pace attack, led by an electrifying spell by Jofra Archer, probed for early wickets.
Archer had Shan Masood nicking a 91mph delivery behind to Jamie Smith before Tongue removed Abdullah Shafique, given out after a review showed he had edged an attempted drive.
