England seamer Matthew Potts says the pitch for the second Test in Pakistan does not have "as many demons" as the tourists first thought.
"You don't judge the score until both teams have batted on it," Potts told Test Match Special. "The pitch certainly appeared like it was a little bit flatter than we first expected. The game is in the balance." But Ghulam, in the home side in place of superstar Babar Azam, became the 13th Pakistan man to make a Test hundred on debut.
Still, that is not unusual. In the same time period, only Sri Lanka has more difficult day-one pitches than Pakistan .
