Wet weather delayed the beginning of the second Test match between England and Pakistan at Lord's. It stopped the toss. Players stayed inside during the first session on day one due to the rain. Bad weather kept everyone away from the pitch.
Recent reports detailed pitch issues at the venue. The ball moved sideways. The bounce was inconsistent. Speed was unpredictable. Because of this, the ground team intends to lift drop-in pitches into place with a crane. Also, the MCC put up a double portrait of Sir James Anderson and Stuart Broad CBE at the ground.
