Wet weather delayed the beginning of the second Test match between England and Pakistan at Lord's. It stopped the toss. Players remained indoors during the first session on day one due to the rain. Poor weather kept everyone away from the pitch.
Recent reports detailed pitch issues at the venue. The ball drifted sideways. The bounce was inconsistent. Speed was not reliable. Because of this, the ground team plans to hoist drop-in pitches into place using a crane. Also, the MCC put up a twin portrait of Sir James Anderson and Stuart Broad CBE at the ground.
