After England's extraordinary effort to post a first innings total of 823-7 on their way to inflict a demoralising innings defeat on the home side, Pakistan rung the changes and bounced back in the second Test at Multan.
And day 1 was once again the Sajid Khan and Noman Ali show as the spinners accounted for nine of England's first innings wickets. The tourists have Jamie Smith to thank for making a respectable total on a tricky pitch; the young wicketkeeper scoring 89 of his team's 267 runs.
And with three quick wickets of their own, that score may prove much better than it first looks. Captain Shan Masood is at the crease with Saud Shakeel overnight. England will want to strike quickly to put them in pole position in another Test that seems unlikely to go the full five days.

First hosting international cricket in 1993, the biggest Test total recorded here was by England in their visit two years ago.
