England breathed a sigh of relief after scoring 657 runs, which is their highest score against Pakistan in Test cricket. It is also the fifth highest score against Pakistan by any team in Test cricket.

After this big score, the test of Pakistani batsmen had started, whose first biggest challenge is to protect themselves from the follow-on.
 

At the end of the second day, Pakistan scored 181 runs without loss. Imam-ul-Haq and Abdullah Shafiq also raised the spirits of the incoming batsmen by batting in a confident manner.

Mamul-Haq was not out on 90 runs. He also completed his 1000 runs in Test career during this innings. This is his 17th Test.

Pakistan still need 276 runs to avoid the follow-on. Abdullah Shafiq was at the crease after scoring 89 runs. The duo recalled the same year's Test against Australia at Pindi, where they put on a 252-run opening partnership in the second innings that included unbeaten centuries from both.

On the first day of the Pindi Test, when England's batsmen were scoring runs at a fast pace, Bazid Khan, a former Test cricketer and commentator in this series, tweeted that this does not happen even on PlayStation.

The positive thinking of England's batsmen did not make any difference in the first session of the second day and they did not let the scorers sit comfortably at any point.

When the England team started batting on the second day, the score was 506 runs for four wickets and when their last wicket fell, they had added 151 runs in just 26 overs, meaning they had maintained a pace of more than five runs per over. kept

Harry Brooke Special Talent
Four centuries had already been scored in England's innings on the first day and the interest on the second day was whether any more batsmen would be able to score triple-digit innings. Although it didn't happen, Harry Brooke managed to add 52 runs to his previous day's score.
