Middle-order batsman , Saud Shakeel’s determined knock put Pakistan on equal footing with England on day two of the third Test in Rawalpindi.

Saud Shakeel’s resilient century kept Pakistan in the game, matching England’s first-innings total of 267 by tea on day two of the series-deciding third Test in Rawalpindi on Friday.
