We're looking forward to a good day of cricket. England are looking to forge ahead and get a big lead.

But if England get bowled out by lunchtime then this could all be done today.

Razaullah blasted his way through and made the headlines for all the right reasons. The pace, the accuracy and that slinging arm action will serve him very well with the old ball.

Also, his attitude, he wanted it. A tremendous Test debut for him.

Pakistan's highlight on day one was the performance of 21-year-old fast bowler Razaullah. On debut, he brought some much needed threat and excitement, dismissing Joe Root in his first over in Test cricket.

He will surely be on from the start this morning along with Muhammad Abbas.

One of the stories of yesterday was Emilio Gay.

With pressure on his place, he dug in again for 60 - his third fifty of his Test career.

He is only averaging 26.1 this summer but one of his predecessors as England's opener Sir Alastair Cook believes he has done enough to start the winter tour in South Africa.

Emilio Gay's played really nicely. I would say he's confident and intense," Cook told Test Match Special.

"He is definitely a run-getter when he gets in. He seems to have that real stubborn and strong will to make it count if he can.

"He has done enough for me to take him to South Africa to continue the progress of a player where the pitches will be slightly easier to bat on and he should open the batting."

England have been too powerful for this Pakistan batting line-up. But the one thing they haven't done is get a hundred yet. I'm looking at Harry Brook. As good as the bowling has been, the batting hasn't been that good.

It's a chance to get a decent score and they should get a lead of 200/250. As much as they're winning here, they know there are facets of the team that will get challenged down the line.

This is the third game England's bowling attack has performed at a very good level. We don't know the level they're actually performing at because of the opposition but you have to start somewhere. And after all the stuff that happened with the Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum Test matches, it was chaos in the England set-up.

People were uncertain about what was happening and now after two and a half games it feels a lot calmer. Results do that and I'm really pleased they didn't change the team.

The sun is out at Edgbaston currently but rain could be a factor later in the day.

England will resume on 156-4 this morning with a lead of 23. They are obviously favourites but there is still work to do to press home their advantage.

After everything we have seen across this series, is anyone ruling out this ending today?

Day one was England's day again. Can this Birmingham Test only go one way from here?
