By the time England get a bat in their hand they will already know a win is impossible because Pakistan have got them by the throat and won't let go...Pakistan will attempt to bat out 2 sessions with a lead of 340 - 350 and put the sword into England by picking up a couple of wickets come close on day 3.
How do you see this day going, your thoughts...
180 is more then enough......BUT

I expect Pakistan to bat the entire day and set England a target close to 500 tomorrow.

500+......you certainly like killing off the opposition don't you resurge.

First of all I can't see Pakistan batting the whole day. Secondly, I hope Pakistan show agression by declaring, and not getting bowled out, no matter how strong the lead is!

I couldn't see it yesterday, but I have a slight fancy for an England win now. BBC it seems just about manage to headline the wrong thing all the time. They have Pakistan with a huge lead now, well, it isn't. It is 323, which has been steadily reduced to 287 without loss. England managed to outperform Pakistan by a fair way in the first innings, and whilst Pakistan have to be favourites, I have a sneaking suspicion it may not turn out like that.

Highly un-likely Eihei, it would be so out of character to what we have seen the last few weeks and would need a near history breaking batting performance...I wouldn't be racing down to the bookie just yet..

I don't do bookies. & I night well be wrong, but just a gut feel.
