Pakistan vs England 2nd Test Day 2 Update
England ended Day 2 of the 2nd Test in complete control at Lord’s, leading Pakistan by 261 runs with seven second-innings wickets still in hand. The hosts followed their first-innings total of 290 by bowling Pakistan out for 110 and then reaching 81/3 before bad light stopped play.
England began the morning on 248/9, but Gus Atkinson and Josh Tongue frustrated Pakistan with a valuable last-wicket stand. Atkinson’s 45 helped the home side add 42 runs to their overnight score before Pakistan finally ended the innings at 290.
Pakistan’s reply never recovered from regular wickets. Azan Awais resisted for 46, but Robinson’s accuracy and Archer’s pace prevented the visitors from building a meaningful partnership. Robinson returned 4/11, while Archer’s 3/26 helped secure a 180-run first-innings lead.
Pakistan found three early wickets in England’s second innings, giving themselves a small lift late in the day. However, Emilio Gay’s unbeaten 30 kept England steady. The hosts will look to build a match-winning lead on Day 3, while Pakistan need quick wickets to keep the Test alive.

Key Talking Points After Day 2
England’s pace attack made full use of the conditions at Lord’s. Robinson conceded only 11 runs in 13 overs, while Archer provided pace and hostility from the other end. Their combined seven wickets left Pakistan with another serious batting problem in the series.
Pakistan’s three second-innings wickets offered some encouragement, but England remain well ahead in the game. The size of the eventual target may depend on how long Gay and the remaining batters can extend the lead on Day 3. Pakistan need an early breakthrough and a much stronger second innings to avoid losing the series at Lord’s.
