England lead Pakistan by 357 at Lord's as uneven bounce torments both batting line-ups

England reached 177-7 in their second innings at Lord's, leading Pakistan by 357 runs on day three of the second Test. Only 24.5 overs were possible as rain forced an 18:30 abandonment that drew boos from spectators. The pitch is producing wildly uneven bounce — one ball rearing, the next shooting along the ground. Muhammad Abbas has 3-48 in the second innings.
