Normal service was resumed in Rawalpindi after a morning session that had hinted at a bowlers revival was followed up by a wicketless session and a Babar Azam century for Pakistan.
The combined score of both teams currently sits at 1068-13, as Pakistan finished the afternoon session on 411-3. England, to their credit, have been creative and consistent in their plans as they try desperately to pry out Pakistan’s batters, but they were met by Azam in fine form as he scored his eighth Test century.
