Just a wierd game. But some performance from Brook and Root. We could easily have collapsed in a heap too.
I don't know. A tired shot from Pope aside, the whole top 6 batted well. Crawley and Duckett did what they are there to do, Root and Brook were exceptional, and Smith came in and went after it as he was presumably told to. Even Woakes, Atkinson and Carse I thought could have got scores if they weren't just trying to go for it, Pakistan's bowling was pretty average.
