Heavy rain delayed the beginning of the second Test match between England and Pakistan at Lord's. It halted the toss. Players stayed inside during the first session on day one as weather worsened. Bad weather kept everyone away from the pitch.
Recent reports detailed pitch issues at the venue. The ball moved sideways. The bounce was uneven. Speed was not reliable. Because of this, the ground team plans to lift drop-in pitches into place using a crane. Also, the MCC unveiled a double portrait of Sir James Anderson and Stuart Broad CBE at the ground.
