## Resource

Neil Manthorp is joined by the former England fast bowlers Darren Gough and Steve Harmison to look back at Day 2 of the first Test between England and Pakistan at Headingley, with England closing on 366-8, a lead of 195 runs. They discuss another dominant day for England, why Pakistan struggled to make the most of the overhead conditions, and if Dan Lawrence should move down to No.7 despite scoring a half-century on his return to the side at No.6 Listeners outside of the UK can hear live ball-by-ball commentary of England's Test series against Pakistan on the talkSPORT Cricket YouTube Channel.
