Masood scored a career-best 156 in the first innings, which came off 319 balls and included 18 boundaries and two sixes.

Azam, meanwhile, made 69, which came off 106 deliveries and included 11 boundaries.

As for Shadab, he struck 45 and followed that up with two wickets in England’s first innings.

“Shan’s patience, Babar’s class, Shadab’s confidence brought Pakistan’s total to 326, and what a brilliant bowling performance by our fast bowlers. Pakistan have a good chance to win this game, our prayers are with the team,” Yousuf said on Twitter.

Pakistan set England a target of 277 to win on the fourth day.
