Wasim is full and straight to Brook, resulting in an lbw shout – but it’s probably going down leg. Decent pace from Wasim, getting it above 140kph, but he’s struggled with his lines so far. Brook, with the third ball of the over, plays a stunning shot, opening up the off side with a small shuffle to leg, with his punch for four coming off the straightest of bats.
And that’s lunch!Stokes wallops a sweep for four off the third ball of the over. Nauman then goes too short and Stokes rocks back to punch through the off-side for another boundary. He’s looking good.Wasim returns and Stokes shows his hand early, shimmying down the pitch – but he doesn’t get any bat on it. The England captain gets it right with the penultimate ball of the over, though, advancing to smash it for four through extra.
