Brendon McCullum's teams are mentally weak. There's having a freedom to play and there's lacking a responsibility to perform. His teams err on the latter far too often. As always we're talking about professionalism and duty to the role, not just going out for a hopeful swing.

Let's call out this batting performance for exactly what it is..... absolutely pathetic, abject and about 100 runs shy of competitive.

This is quite a raw set of lessons for Harry Brook as captain here. We'll see if the team can keep it from being a trashing.

Another bouncer from Haris Rauf, who has two men back on the hook, but it causes more issues for Saad Baig behind the stumps than Sam Curran and is called wide.

The Gaddafi Stadium slowly filling up, by the way. By the time the sun goes down in Lahore and Pakistan come out to bat it should be pretty full.

Rauf hits Duckett on the foot with the penultimate delivery of the over leaving the England opener yelping in pain.

Will Jacks is starting to feel a little more comfortable, but Pakistan have realigned well after the Ben Duckett and Sam Curran partnership.

Duckett hasn't looked fluent in the series so far, so for him to find that fluency is a heartening thing for him.

He has played a Duckett-style of innings, he has trusted his sweep, he has pulled the ball dominantly and he has punished any width as well.

Now, have Pakistan got the key wicket of Ben Duckett?

Nothing from the umpire after the England opener is struck on the pad trying to turn Shadab Khan behind square.

Shadab is convinced, Saad Baig behind the stumps isn't interested, Shaheen decides to go for the review.

Pakistan seeing Jordan Cox was trying to play that shot, so they plugged that gap.

He was not able to stay on top of the bounce, it caught the outside edge because the face was open, and he guided the ball to fifth slip.

England are reeling here.

Shaheen Afridi is bowling smartly here. Putting the ball in some tricky areas, taking a few risks to bring another wicket.

Astute stuff from the left-arm quick.

Harry Brook inside edges his final ball of the over behind square and attempts to come back or a second. Some smart fielding, though, and he looks in a bit of trouble.

Pakistan's players celebrate. It's been sent upstairs.

Ben Duckett is not happy with his bat.

He has carved it through point, and then looked at his bat.

I don't think there is any need for him to get frustrated out there in the middle.

If he can relax, then that will go into his game.

Pakistan: Saim Ayub, Fakhar Zaman, Babar Azam, Saad Baig (wicketkeeper), Salman Agha, Hasan Nawaz, Arafat Minhas, Shadab Khan, Shaheen Afridi (captain), Razaullah, Haris Rauf

England: Tom Banton, Ben Duckett, Joe Root, Harry Brook (captain), Jordan Cox (wicketkeeper), Sam Curran, Will Jacks, Jamie Overton, Liam Dawson, Gus Atkinson, Henry Crocombe
