Pakistan currently 50/2 with a gutsy Shan Masood and a slightly nervy Babar Azam at the crease. How many runs do you think they'll finish the innings with?

Optimistically : 450-520
Realistically : 260-330
Pessimistically: 180-200
 
It will depend on this partnership. I predict 237/10.
 
This Shan-Babar partnership will be crucial for us getting 300, if they bat long then we can easily get 300+.
 
300 would put an awful lot of pressure on England and bring the two leggies into the equation on the final day.

But anything between 220 and 280 keeps Pakistan in contention, because England only have 4 frontline batsmen.
 
If we lose Babar before his 100, we will crumble for 250. Otherwise 300 is on the cards.
 
I think we shouldn’t be very optimistic at the moment.

This is Pakistan batting - I will play it safe: Pak will score around 275...
 
260-280 there is not much of batting left long tail makes it difficult 7-11 all tailenders
 
300 will be an excellent 1st inns score. Even 275+ is a good score. It means England can't afford slip up in first inns else Pak will be all over them
 
Man can we just have a good 2 sessions of batting today. I will be happy if we are still batting at tea. We should be looking at 330 by that point. If we are batting at 5.30pm the game is ours to lose. We will be on around 420.
Long long way to go.
I love that root will be coming in at 3 and stokes at 4. Hopefully a good start with the ball and we can get amongst them
 
If Shan can stick around and see off the new ball we should get at least 235/240
 
The 250 mark has just been reached, with this current partnership worth 74 runs, Shan on 103 and Shadab on 37.

300+ surely on the cards here?
