England reached stumps on day two with a 261-run lead after Pakistan were bowled out for 110 at Lord's.
England extended their lead to 261 runs after Pakistan were dismissed for 110 on day two of the second Test at Lord's. The hosts' seam attack completed the collapse before the England openers added to the advantage by stumps.
Emilio Gay remained not out on 30 as England built on their first innings total. Pakistan's second innings began poorly with the loss of an early wicket to a brilliant diving catch by wicketkeeper Muhammad Rizwan.
England require one more victory to secure their first home Test series win in two years. Their position at stumps on day two leaves Pakistan facing a steep task to avoid defeat.
