Skipper Ali's poor form continued as he was plumb in front of wicket for just eight. 

Pakistan had resumed Day 4 at 137/9. However, it did t take English pacers too long to run past ir tail-enders and bundle m out for 169 as hosts were set a stiff target of 277 runs to draw first blood in three-match series. It was always going to be a challenge for England as y had to see of new ball which provides a lot of assistance to seamers upfront in those overcast conditions which y did to some extent.

neless, English side kept on losing wickets at regular intervals even though a few of batsmen were keeping scoreboard ticking. At 117/5, it seemed that it was all over for English side but Jos Buttler and Chris Woakes had or ideas as y made a stellar contribution lower down order. duo added 139 runs for sixth-wicket stand and brought England on verge of a famous win.
