On the first day of the test match against England in Multan, Pakistan’s captain, Shan Masood, played an impressive innings to reach his fifth test century.
Masood and Abdullah Shafique shared a robust 225-run partnership, bringing Pakistan to a commanding score of 233 for one by the tea break.
The English bowlers, both pacers and spinners, found it difficult to break the pair’s rhythm, resulting in a long, fruitless toil on the field.
