Harry Brook continued his impressive form, building a commanding lead for England against Pakistan on a rain-affected second day of the first Test at Headingley. Brook's sparkling performance in the gloom saw England extend their advantage over the visitors, who were dismissed for 171.
Meanwhile, in domestic county cricket, Liam Patterson-White played a crucial role in a spirited fightback for leaders Nottinghamshire. Despite being reduced to 41-5 by Surrey at The Kia Oval, Patterson-White's efforts helped Notts post a total of 184 all out. Elsewhere, Zak Crawley's half-century put Kent in a strong position against Middlesex, and Ben Allison's early wickets gave Worcestershire an edge over Gloucestershire before rain interrupted play.
