Pitch and Conditions

The match will be played on the same pitch used for the first Test, which saw a high-scoring affair dominated by the batters. However, with three frontline spinners in Pakistan’s lineup, the pitch is expected to offer more assistance to the bowlers this time.

England’s skipper had no clue how the pitch would behave; he said, “It is the first time I will be playing on a used wicket in a Test series. We could sit here and say, ‘It’s going to do this, it’s going to do that,’ but who knows?

“You’d like to think it’s going to offer the spinners a bit more than last week, and it’s being used and hot. It is a slightly drier square so you might see a little more reverse swing. We will have to wait and see what happens.”
