Political lean describes where an outlet sits within the politics of its own country. It is never a position on a single global scale.

Political lean is comparable inside one country and not across them, which is why the bar groups by country first. Publicly funded broadcasters are not marked as state-linked.

The owner of each outlet is listed as a matter of record, not as a judgement about the outlet.

Every outlet covering this story shares the same political lean; read with that in mind.

England was dismissed for 290 in their first innings on the second day of the second Test against Pakistan at Lord's. A late partnership between Gus Atkinson and Josh Tongue added 47 runs for the tenth wicket. Atkinson scored 45 runs before being dismissed, while Tongue remained unbeaten on 30, which marked a career best for the number 11 batsman. Mohammad Abbas led the Pakistani bowling attack with four wickets for 73 runs. England had previously struggled at 36 for 3 on Thursday, but Jamie Smith and Jordan Cox scored fifties to help the team recover before the end of the first day.

Pakistan began their reply with Shan Masood and Azan Awais opening the batting. Captain Babar Azam returned to the lineup after missing the first Test due to a finger injury, while opener Imam ul Haq remained off the field with a left calf muscle strain. During Pakistan's innings, Ollie Robinson and Joe Root took wickets to put Pakistan in a difficult position. Pakistan reached 104 for 6, with Ali Usman dismissed by Jofra Archer. Robinson's performance was highlighted by his efficiency, while Azan Awais contributed 46 runs to the total.
