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.

The 29-year-old left-hander anchored Pakistan’s innings with an unbeaten 107, crafted patiently with 75 singles and just four boundaries.

Shakeel stood firm against England’s bowlers, sharing an 88-run partnership for the eighth wicket with Noman Ali, who scored 45 before spinner Shoaib Bashir dismissed him in the final over before the break.
