Harry plays it by the Brook

CRICKET: Pakistan v England, 2nd Test, Day Two

- Dean WILSON

HARRY BROOK moved England into a series-winning position by making sure Pakistan will have to make the biggest total of the game  in the fourth innings to win.

That is a highly unlikely outcome on a pitch that has offered far more to the bowlers than the last one, especially for bespectacled spinners Jack Leach and Abrar Ahmed – who both celebrated milestones on day two.

For Leach, his 4-98 helped make him the 13th left-arm spinner to take more than 100 Test wickets for England. Abrar duly grabbed 10 wickets in the match after taking three of the five to fall in the second innings by the close of day two.
