Eng vs Pak 1st Test match preview 

Pakistan are one of the few teams that have consistently challenged England in Tests in their own backyard. However, England have the advantage of having already played three competitive Test matches in home conditions, as they came back from behind to win against West Indies. Pakistan last played a Test in February, but have been keeping themselves match fit in England via net sessions and intra-squad matches.
