Thursday 5am: Pakistan v England
TV: Sky Sports Cricket
We’ve got some cracking Test cricket action going on in the early hours of Thursday morning with Pakistan taking on England.
It starts at 5am our time and 10am local time and the start time could be significant because the England team were reporting a bit of dew in the mornings when they’re practicing around that time. I think that could be an advantage to the bowlers.
The ever youthful James Anderson should play a big factor, particularly if Pakistan bat first.

Anderson can take a few wickets and he’s a solid selection to be England’s Top First Innings Wicket Taker.
He wouldn’t still be playing at 40 years old if he wasn’t staying fit and well and he will be a handful for the Pakistan batsmen.
Ben Stokes would also have been of interest for the selection but the England man is a doubtful starter due to illness.
Pakistan superstar Naseem Shah could be worth looking at on their side for wickets as he looks the real deal.
