I looked up the records for most runs by a team in a day and was very surprised by (1) how high they are and (2) how many are England

none of those matches were in Pakistan if I'm reading this correctly; so at the very least anything above 425 would be the most ever scored in a day in Pakistan. Anyone know how to find the current record for runs in a day in Pakistan?

People who follow Pakistan domestic cricket a bit closer than me - whatever happened to Umer Khan, the young left arm spinner? I saw him in the PSL a few years ago when he was still a teenager and I thought he was a Test prospect based on what I saw there. Aside from just getting a lot of good players out, he really tossed it up and gave it a rip - he wasn't bowling T20 sliders.

I'm disappointed to see that he's only played played five FC games and has been spending the past couple of months playing for the mighty Northern Second XI.

Dunno tbh, just disappeared off the face of the earth.

Man I lost all interest in this series in the first hour. Just a farce what these pitches are. Aim for 0-0 and lose by 0-1. Couldn't have gotten a more favourable WTC draw and this is what they come up with. Just atrocious.

Pretty confident that this is going to be the record for most runs in a day when away from home. Not sure what the record is exactly but according to cricinfo it's less than 425.

Yeah. That's a huge point. Pakistan can never get a more favorable wtc draw in future. Sena sides at home and SC sides away is as best as you can get.

Did you hear David Gower speculating whether current-day Nasser Hussain could've made a ton on it today? I don't think he was joking - it was an interesting question.

Nah that's not true, "team 1" is always just listed as the home team there, not the team making the runs. For example, New Zealand scored 452 on Day 1 in Harare:

Unless something drastic happens they'll pass the record for most runs in on the first day of a test. They've got 25 overs to score 84 runs and are motoring along at seven and a half. It's 494, Australia vs Sputh Africa 1910 (in only 99 overs too)

The overall record is a bit further - 588 by England vs India in 1936. That said, India somehow bowled about 140 overs in the day.

Can't be too many times there's been three centuries scored on day 1 of a test. Or any day of a test, really...
