Live 2nd Test: Pakistan to bat against England at Abu Dhabi 2012

Toss: Pakistan have won the toss and elected to bat

Strauss: It is a dry wicket. We will have to bowl well with the new ball. It will be difficult to score. Monty Panesar replaces Chris Tremlett. We have to bowl well in the first session. The spinners can bowl the bulk of the overs and that will help the seamers. The match in Dubai was a wake up call for us.

Misbah: It looks like a different Abu Dhabi wicket. We have two spinners. Junaid Khan replaces Aizaz Cheema. Junaid bowled really well in the previous match against Sri Lanka. We have to improve our batting. We have to convert the fifties into hundreds. We have to be positive.

Pitch Report: This is a dry pitch. There is some dead grass on this track. David Lloyd says that it might spin later in the day. This pitch has lots of runs on offer for the batsmen.
