MULTAN: England is marching towards victory in Multan after surpassing the humungous total raised by Pakistan. England scored 823 runs in 150 overs and declared after getting a 67-run lead. Pakistan scored 152 runs for the loss of 6 wickets when play stopped on the fourth day. Pakistan needs 115 more runs to avoid an innings defeat.

At one stage of the game, Pakistan was crumbling at 82 for six wickets but a 7th wicket stand by Agha Salman (41*) and Aamir Jamal (27*) saved the day. Opener Abdullah Shafiq (0) was dismissed on the very first ball of the innings. Captain Shan Masood (11), Saeem Ayub (25), Babar Azam (5), Saud Shakeel (29) and Mohammad Rizwan (10) returned in a hurry without creating any impact.

Harry Brook (317) scored a triple-century and Joe Root (262) scored a double-century for England.
