Scorecard - 2nd Test, Pakistan vs England at Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai, United Arab Emirates (22 Oct 2015)

110.5 - Moeen Ali to Yasir Shah, FOUR, in trying to dish out the candy, Ali errs a bit too full. Overpitched outside off, Yasir drills the drive through the cover region. Has looked fairly accomplished, much more so than Riaz at least

109.5 - Stokes to Yasir Shah, FOUR, now tries to surprise the batsman with a fuller length delivery, it was on the pads though. Yasir flicks it elegantly and the ball skims past the chasing mid-wicket into the ropes

109.4 - Stokes to Yasir Shah, FOUR, Stokes switches to round the wicket and telegraphs the short delivery. It was angling away from Yasir giving him the room to get a clean swing of his arms on the pull. Manages a top edge and over the keeper's head

109.0 - Moeen Ali to Shafiq, FOUR, the field was up trying to prevent the single and Shafiq makes use of the opportunity by hammering a slog-sweep over mid-wicket

108.2 - Moeen Ali to Riaz, FOUR, no messing around now. "His defence is not great," says Ramiz Raja on air. So we know what to expect. Takes a couple of steps down to get close to the loop, gets on one knee and slog-sweeps it wide of deep mid-wicket

104.1 - Moeen Ali to Sarfraz Ahmed, FOUR, shortish, fastish and just outside off, Sarfraz uses the pace on the ball and carves it behind square on the off-side, Broad gives chase and comes second

101.0 - Adil Rashid to Sarfraz Ahmed, FOUR, bad delivery from Rashid to end the over. The full toss on off, Sarfraz clears his front leg, opens up the leg-side and whips it wide of mid-on, Cook didn't bother to chase that down

97.0 - Broad to Shafiq, FOUR, Broad might be tiring. This is an expensive over from him - 11 runs came off it. Fullish angling in on middle, Shafiq leans forward and clips it elegantly through mid-wicket, no need to run for those

96.2 - Broad to Sarfraz Ahmed, FOUR, no one is going to stop that. Short and width on offer, Sarfraz has been waiting for something like this since his arrival, frees his arms and cracks it in front of square on the off-side, no fielder sweeping on the off-side

96.0 - Mark Wood to Shafiq, FOUR, edged and four. That brings up his 12th Test fifty. Another typical Shafiq innings. Comes in when the team is in a bit of trouble and adds a partnership with one of the senior men. Coming to the ball, on a length in the channel around off, Shafiq looks to defend off the back foot, the ball catches the outside edge and runs to the left of gully

88.4 - Stokes to Shafiq, FOUR, Cook thought about breaking into a sprint to give chase but soon gave up. It was a cracking cover drive, leaned into the shot and played it on the up through extra-cover

83.3 - Mark Wood to Misbah, FOUR, another one teasingly evades the fielder. A well directed bouncer gunning for the badge, Misbah transfers his weight on the back foot after coming forward and pulls it away. Didn't quite keep it along the ground and the ball just escapes the outstretched hands of Ali at backward square leg who was leaping to get to it

83.1 - Mark Wood to Misbah, FOUR, short of length delivery outside off, Misbah slices his punch in the air and behind backward point. May or may not have been deliberate but well wide of the man

82.1 - Stokes to Shafiq, FOUR, goes flashing at a wide half-volley, the movement catches a thickish outside edge which zooms away behind backward point

76.5 - Adil Rashid to Shafiq, FOUR, down the track comes Shafiq and is nearly done in by the bowler who drags his length back. Shafiq still manages to reach out and loft it over mid-on. Didn't look the prettiest but effectively done

75.2 - Anderson to Shafiq, FOUR, rare loose ball from Jimmy. Short and with width on offer, Shafiq waits on the back foot and crunches the back-cut behind backward point

64.3 - Moeen Ali to Shafiq, FOUR, "catch" yelps the keeper. It's Ian Bell, that took away half the chance. Nah, on a serious note it was well wide of him. Shafiq dances down and looks to whack this with the turn, the bat turned in his hand as he spooned it off the inside half to the right of mid-wicket. Bell hurtles across and dives but it's too far. Gets away with it does Shafiq

63.3 - Stokes to Shafiq, FOUR, Stokes has got the ball to reverse consistently. Overpitched delivery on the stumps, curls away ever so late and takes a thick outside edge of Shafiq's flowing drive. Unfortunately for the bowler, it straightaway dies on the turf and sneaks through slip and gully

62.3 - Moeen Ali to Misbah, FOUR, another reverse sweep! Also registers his half-century, his 31st in Tests. Gets a warm embrace from Shafiq. Moves in position ever so quickly and just helps it away behind backward point

53.1 - Moeen Ali to Misbah, FOUR, drifting away nicely outside off, overpitched though and Misbah crunches the drive through the covers

49.2 - Moeen Ali to Misbah, FOUR, now the reverse! Half of Misbah's runs have come off the sweep shots. It was always on though with no backward point in place. Tossed up outside off, he is in position in a flash and helps it away fine

48.4 - Broad to Younis Khan, FOUR, soon after the slip is taken away, an edge flies through the vacant region. Well, this is what happens when you mess too much with the basics. A loose drive attempted by Younis against a good length delivery well wide of off, the ball tkes the outside edge and goes straight through where first slip would have been. You could argue that he played the shot because the fielder wasn't there. Umm, not really

45.4 - Stokes to Misbah, FOUR, was that a chance? Oh it's that man Bell again. The ball was right between first and second slip but might have just fell short. A hint of shape away from the batsman squares him up completely in his back foot defence. The ball takes a thick outside edge and goes very low. Could Bell have got there by diving forward? Maybe, maybe not. We'll never know. His feet seemed to have been stuck on the ground as he never made an attempt

44.2 - Adil Rashid to Misbah, FOUR, previously he has had to fetch the sweep from outside off, this delivery is on middle and off, As a result he gets a lot more power behind the shot and the ball skims away behind square

41.2 - Stokes to Younis Khan, FOUR, surely is moving in the air! Squared Younis up completely after shaping away late, the thick outside edge dribbles away wide of the diving second slip and into the fence

38.5 - Adil Rashid to Misbah, FOUR, finally Misbah latches onto one. Has been a horrible over from Rashid. Half-tracker which is pulled fiercely over mid-on. Didn't quite get hold of it but enough to clear the infield

29.4 - Moeen Ali to Younis Khan, FOUR, very full outside off, too easy for a player like Younis. Drills the drive through the cover region. Enough legs on it to go all the way

27.5 - Adil Rashid to Younis Khan, FOUR, too much air this time, ends up being a low loopy full toss outside off stump, Younis sees the opportunity and cracks the drive through extra-cover

24.5 - Broad to Masood, FOUR, fifty for Masood! His second in Tests. Got to hand it to the opener the way he has approached this innings. The intent has been positive both in attack and defence. And this is a brilliant shot to bring up the landmark. On a good length just around the fourth stump line, Masood presses towards the line of the ball and pushes it square of the wicket. All timing

21.5 - Moeen Ali to Masood, FOUR, this is good positive batting. Masood has played with intent right through his innings. Advances again, makes room and belts the drive through extra-cover

17.3 - Moeen Ali to Masood, FOUR, that's what happens when you use your feet. The bowler's length is messed up. Drags this short outside off, Masood was waiting on the back foot and cuts it away behind square

15.1 - Moeen Ali to Hafeez, FOUR, flatter outside off, Hafeez goes leg-side to make room and punches it nicely square of the wicket. Broad, who was at backward point, puts in a clumsy effort and allows the ball to sneak through

14.2 - Mark Wood to Masood, FOUR, there's your riposte. Short of length delivery which doesn't lift very high. Masood watches it closely and plays a short arm-jab pull behind square. The timing on it was exquisite and the ball skimmed to the ropes

6.4 - Anderson to Hafeez, FOUR, and as I say that, he bowls one a bit too full. Just a firm push down the ground from Hafeez. Mid-off was quite wide, gives chase but the outfield here is quick. Much more so than Abu Dhabi

5.2 - Broad to Masood, FOUR, now this is much more convincing. Straying on the pads, flicked away right off the meat through the mid-wicket region

5.1 - Broad to Masood, FOUR, Masood is stuck on the crease all the time expecting a short one. As a result his feet are not going towards the pitch of the ball. On a fuller length just outside off, gets a thick outside edge on his attempted cover-drive, rolls away wide of the slip cordon and into the boundary

4.5 - Anderson to Hafeez, FOUR, might have looked streaky but Hafeez was in control. Back of a length around the fifth stump line, Hafeez gets a thick outside edge while looking to defend off the back foot, was played with soft hands though which meant that the ball went straight into the ground. Also beats the dive of third slip to run away

3.5 - Broad to Hafeez, FOUR, pitched further up by Broad looking to entice a drive. Hafeez obliges. Leans nicely into it and sends the ball rolling through the cover region. The fielder gives chase and puts in a head-first dive trying to flick it back but doesn't get close

3.2 - Broad to Masood, FOUR, strays in line and Masood gets it away. A fuller length delivery on the pads, all the batsman had to do was get a tickle fine

67.1 - Riaz to Broad, FOUR, short of length and wide of off, Broad goes on the back foot and punches that with sublime timing, square on the off-side

66.3 - Yasir Shah to Broad, byes, FOUR, down the leg-side, that has spun a long way, the batsman didn't pick it, neither did the keeper and the slip fielder, raced away to fine-leg

62.1 - Yasir Shah to Bairstow, FOUR, for the gazillionth time, Bairstow gets an edge to an attempted cut. Jumps back in the crease to a shortish delivery, gets it off the bottom-edge this time. The ball might have gone between the keeper's legs actually and skims away. Poor ol Younis gives chase and puts in a head first dive, but the ball has already reached the ropes

56.4 - Yasir Shah to Bairstow, FOUR, Yasir has really struggled this morning. Either too short or too full. This is a half-tracker, Bairstow pounces on it and crashes the cut in front of square to find the gap

56.3 - Yasir Shah to Bairstow, FOUR, a genuine outside edge which runs away. It was pushed through quicker, the flatter trajectory lulls Bairstow to play back to a delivery which was fullish, gets an outside edge which travels low to the left of Younis at slip. Fell well short of his outstretched left hand though

55.5 - Riaz to Root, FOUR, Root was opened up a touch but did well to go at it with soft hands. It was angling away on a back of a length, Root has a feel for it and the thick outside edge dies immediately and runs away between the slip cordon and gully

54.3 - Yasir Shah to Root, FOUR, and again. Leg-spinner and a full toss go together like butter and popcorn it seems. Nice and loopy and drifting in on the stumps, lots of bottom hand in this whip through mid-wicket. Was in the air but well wide of mid-on

54.2 - Yasir Shah to Root, FOUR, full toss from Yasir. 99 times out of 100 Root will put it away. Whips it through mid-wicket

50.0 - Yasir Shah to Root, FOUR, this is a terrific battle between two fine cricketers. Flighted delivery and on the stumps from Yasir Shah, Root brings out the slog sweep, doesn't look to keep it down and it runs away to the deep square leg fence

48.4 - Babar to Bairstow, FOUR, Bairstow cracks a powerful shot. He comes forward to a tossed up delivery and drills it to deep extra cover. It races to the boundary boards

45.4 - Yasir Shah to Root, FOUR, this one is bowled outside the line of leg-stump, Root uses the sweep and it goes fine for a welcome boundary. Root is playing with a touch of bravado against Yasir

43.2 - Yasir Shah to Bairstow, FOUR, the straighter one from Yasir Shah, Bairstow plays against the spin. He brings out the slog sweep and collects a boundary through deep backward square leg. He didn't look to keep the sweep shot down there

40.4 - Riaz to Root, FOUR, consecutive boundaries for Root. Riaz from over the wicket, bowls it on a fuller length and outside off, Root, opens the face ever so slightly, leans into the drive and threads the gap between cover and backward point to perfection. Misbah gives the chase and puts in the dive, but to no avail

40.3 - Riaz to Root, FOUR, overpitched from Riaz, Root nicely uses the pace of the bowler and threads the gap through the cover-region. The fielder at cover gives the chase, but the ball wins the race

32.4 - Imran Khan to Cook, FOUR, Imran must be feeling like tearing his hair out. So frustrating. Pitched right up and slanting away, Cook seemed to be forced into a drive as his feet were languid, the ball takes a thick outside edge and once again just dies quickly and past the diving third slip (which was inserted after the previous delivery)

32.3 - Imran Khan to Cook, FOUR, the outside edge which dies quickly as it was played with soft hands. Cook had a feel for that length delivery which was angled across him. Close enough to off-stump to draw out a shot. Rolls away evading the diving second slip fielder

30.3 - Imran Khan to Cook, FOUR, oh dear! A help-me ball. Cook accepts it gladly. "Thank you very much, I'll bring up my half-century". His 45th in Tests. Low full toss on the pads, Cook tickles it away fine

25.5 - Riaz to Cook, FOUR, the short ball ploy is not working against Cook. He doesn't seem to be too fussed with it, rocks back and pivots on the back foot as he pulls this fine. The fielder was square and had no chance of stopping that

25.3 - Riaz to Cook, FOUR, top delivery. After bowling a couple of short deliveries, Riaz goes for the inswinging full delivery, Cook wasn't expecting that, doesn't get forward as he pushes at it, the ball takes the inside edge, hits the back pad and flies past the leg-stump. Riaz thought he had his man and asks Misbah to take the review

25.0 - Shoaib Malik to Root, FOUR, full and outside off, Root lunges and gets to the pitch of the ball, caressed it to the deep extra cover boundary

22.0 - Yasir Shah to Cook, FOUR, majestic! No problems for Cook this time around. He was clear in his mind. Kneels down and gets underneath the flighted delivery, slog sweeps it over mid-wicket, one bounce and into the fence

18.0 - Yasir Shah to Root, FOUR, second boundary of the over. Flighted on leg-stump, Root kneels down and sweeps it behind square leg, there was a man in the deep, but Root did well to play it fine

17.1 - Yasir Shah to Root, FOUR, leg-spinner and a full toss. Those two go hand-in-hand. Just that it took Yasir Shah three overs to bowl one. Root leans forward and clips it through mid-wicket, the timing takes it to the fence

14.5 - Babar to Cook, FOUR, fabulous shot! That is unlike Cook. He shimmies down the wicket, meets the pitch of the flighted delivery and hammers it over mid-wicket, hit it in the air intentionally and picked up four

12.1 - Babar to Root, FOUR, Babar drags this one short, Root picks the length quickly and pulls it to deep mid-wicket. It was a gift of a delivery from Babar and Root took a heavy toll of it

11.0 - Babar to Cook, FOUR, Cook is very good at getting outside off and then bringing out the sweep shot. He did exactly that as he slog sweeps this flighted delivery to fine leg. The fielder in the deep attempts to hunt it down, but the ball wins the race

7.5 - Riaz to Root, FOUR, Riaz is causing headaches for the English batsmen. Remember, Root has been troubled by short stuff in the past. Here, the short ball from Riaz gets big on Root, he can't control the pull, gets a top-edge to fine leg. To add insult to Riaz's wounds, it runs to the boundary boards

6.2 - Imran Khan to Cook, FOUR, Cook has certainly improved his game on the front foot in recent times. He comes forward, bends his front knee and drives this fuller length delivery that is bowled outside off through the cover-region. It races to the boundary boards. He found the gap with needlepoint precision

3.1 - Riaz to Cook, FOUR, back of a length delivery that drifts on Cook's pads, Cook is very good at clipping it into the on-side. He jumps in the air, rolls his wrists down and flicks it to deep backward square leg. The ball crashes into the ad-cushions

92.4 - Moeen Ali to Shafiq, FOUR, lovely use of the feet. Gets right to the pitch of this flighted delivery and spanks it with the turn over mid-wicket

90.5 - Mark Wood to Shafiq, FOUR, tired effort from the English skipper. Long Test match this has been for him. Half-volley which is driven straight of mid-on, Cook sprints across and tumbles to make the stop. Gets a hand but the ball has enough legs to run away to the ropes

90.1 - Mark Wood to Shafiq, FOUR, what a shot! Didn't go too hard at it, just beautiful roll of the wrists. On a back of a length close to off, Shafiq is anchored to the crease, waits for the ball to arrive and punches it past the diving backward point fielder

90.0 - Adil Rashid to Younis Khan, FOUR, terrific use of the feet. Is down the pitch in a flash, takes this loopy delivery on the full and drills it down the ground. Fasten your belts

85.0 - Moeen Ali to Younis Khan, FOUR, now Younis Khan gets into the act. Skips out and then to the pitch before bottom-handing a flick over mid-wicket. Wristwork from Younis Khan and great to see as he was down the wicket in a flash before deciding to go for the big hit. Now he will play his shots

83.5 - Adil Rashid to Younis Khan, FOUR, yet another 100 for Younis Khan. He keeps getting better and better with age. His 31st hundred in Tests. No problems at all. Gets a gift from Adil Rashid, short and wide outside off, he rocks back and cuts wide of short cover, the ball runs away wide of the chasing fielders. No big celebrations, a handshake with Shafiq and then a raise of the bat before asking for a fresh pair of gloves. He wants to get on with it. A true professional and such a great smile he has

82.3 - Broad to Younis Khan, FOUR, Younis Khan has a wry smile on his face after getting a boundary. He shuffled across his stumps and then shows all his three stumps, asking Broad to hit one of them or the pads. Broad fired it towards off stump, Younis Khan though flicked it into the vacant deep backward square leg region, takes four and moves to 98. Even Broad had a wry smile on his face after Younis Khan put bat to ball

81.5 - Adil Rashid to Shafiq, FOUR, dragged down and gives Shafiq all the time to rock back and pull to deep mid-wicket. Was onto that in a flash and put it away, in the gap

77.5 - Stokes to Shafiq, FOUR, now to the left of the fielder. All class from the little man. Slightly fuller length and Shafiq gets right to the pitch, caresses the drive through extra-cover

77.4 - Stokes to Shafiq, FOUR, mid-off is quite wide and Shafiq gets it through. Stands tall and punches it straight of the man. An innocuous back of a length delivery in the corridor, no real purpose. Elegantly done

76.3 - Broad to Younis Khan, FOUR, the width was there and Younis Khan has flayed that through point. Full outside off, Younis Khan standing outside his crease belted that on the rise and once he found the gap, it was four all the way. Moves into the nineties

76.1 - Broad to Younis Khan, FOUR, Younis Khan gets lucky and gets a boundary. Full outside off, Younis Khan reached out to drive well away from his body, the thick inside edge narrowly misses off stump and Buttler didn't even move to his left. He stood static, even if he had gone for it, he would just grabbed the ball on the bounce as it went to ground quickly

71.3 - Stokes to Shafiq, FOUR, too full and that allows Shafiq to play a glorious cover drive on a bent back knee. The knee touched the ground as he crouched low and then creamed the drive through the gap at cover. The ball had enough to beat the chasing fielders. Shafiq's class on show there

68.0 - Mark Wood to Shafiq, FOUR, drifting onto the pads and Shafiq gets a boundary. Rolled his wrists on the leg-glance and the ball beat the fine leg fielder who was very square. Nicely done by Shafiq

60.2 - Root to Misbah, FOUR, short and down the leg-side, it was asking to be hit. It was a help yourself delivery. Misbah just brings out the slog sweep and gets it past the man at leg slip for a boundary

59.0 - Adil Rashid to Younis Khan, FOUR, the juicy full toss from Adil Rashid, Younis looks to heave it across the line. He gets it right off the bottom of the bat. However, it has enough legs to beat the mid-on fielder who gave the chase

54.4 - Adil Rashid to Misbah, FOUR, Misbah goes across towards the off-stump and brings out the slog sweep. He doesn't look to keep it down. Luckily for him it goes over the head of Broad at short fine for a boundary

54.0 - Stokes to Misbah, FOUR, in between, Misbah suddenly wakes up. He just bludgeons this length delivery past motionless fielders to extra cover. It crashed into the ad-cushions. Now, that was a meaty blow from Pakistan's skipper

53.3 - Stokes to Misbah, FOUR, Oh! No! That is the last thing a team that is going through the motions want. Stokes flings it on a fuller length and invites the drive, Misbah comes half-forward, gets an outside edge. However, neither the keeper nor Root at first slip moved. It went between the two and Misbah collected four more runs to his tally. More pain and agony for the wholehearted cricketer from Durham - Stokes

51.4 - Stokes to Misbah, FOUR, more pain and agony for the bowler as Misbah steers this good length ball along the carpet past the first slip fielder to the third man fence. He was opened up there, but in the end, he played it with soft hands

46.1 - Broad to Younis Khan, byes, FOUR, well, it seemed to have touched the thigh pad on its way. However, the umpire signals it as four byes. Drifting down the leg-side, Younis looks to tickle it around the corner and fails to connect

45.5 - Stokes to Misbah, FOUR, Stokes flings it on a good length and it angles away after pitching. Misbah steers it wide of the fielder at first slip and it runs away to the third man fence

44.4 - Broad to Younis Khan, FOUR, Younis brings up his 31st Test fifty in style. Broad drifts this one down the leg-side, the willowy Younis brings his Asian wrists into play and flicks it to fine leg for a boundary. Younis has certainly a great conversion rate as he has made 30 Test centuries as well

37.1 - Anderson to Younis Khan, FOUR, Younis is all text-book. Such elegance with his strokeplay. You err slightly in line and he will put you away. Fuller length delivery on off, Younis shuffles across and neatly flicks it through square leg. Skims away!

36.2 - Adil Rashid to Misbah, FOUR, dropped short, 77ks, Misbah examines it on the back foot, and swats it wide of long-on

30.5 - Adil Rashid to Misbah, FOUR, it's just not falling in place for Rashid. Very ordinary he's been since Tea. Low loopy full toss, Misbah gets down on one knee, uses his long reach and plonks the sweep behind square

26.0 - Mark Wood to Younis Khan, FOUR, if you ever wanted to watch confidence of a classy batsman, you have to catch up the highlights of the last ball before tea. Younis just drove that and turned his back, he knows he timed and placed it to perfection. He didn't even bother watching his partner. Full and in the slot, Pakistan's leading run-scorer in Tests, drives that elegantly wide of mid-on, hardly any soul moved on the field. Mid-on fielder just jogs casually to collect that ball. So, that will be tea on day 3.

21.3 - Mark Wood to Hafeez, FOUR, what a way to get to your fifty? Hafeez reaches his fifty in style - with a pull through mid-wicket. Short and sat up nicely for Hafeez, he rocks back and goes for the stroke. Placed it well wide of the man protecting the deep mid-wicket fence

21.0 - Root to Younis Khan, FOUR, full and on the leg-stump line, Younis sinks low and sweeps it behind square on the leg-side. Younis and Hafeez are toying with the English spinners here. Back to pace chef?

18.0 - Adil Rashid to Hafeez, FOUR, Adil Rashid, just like his spin twin, bowls a lollipop of the last ball. Bowls a short delivery on the stumps, Hafeez sits back and pulls it wide of long-on, Cook the man there just jogs and lets the ball reach the fence. Must say that was a very casual effort

17.0 - Moeen Ali to Hafeez, FOUR, what are you bowling Moeen Ali? Full toss on the stumps to Hafeez, he jumps out and smacks it straight down the ground. Moeen hasn't been impressive in his spell

15.4 - Stokes to Hafeez, FOUR, superb stuff from Hafeez! When he sees width, he pounces on it. This time he clobbers the drive off the front foot and places it through cover

13.5 - Stokes to Hafeez, FOUR, short and Hafeez takes full toll of it. He has so much time to pick his spot, rocks back and pulls that over mid-wicket, superb placement and timing

12.5 - Moeen Ali to Younis Khan, FOUR, floats up nicely and offers the driving width this time, Younis creams the shot all along the ground through extra-cover, don't bother running for those

12.4 - Moeen Ali to Younis Khan, FOUR, short and this time Younis won't spare it. Rocks back and goes for the full-blooded pull through mid-wicket, you can't bowl that to a batsman of Younis' class

7.2 - Mark Wood to Shoaib Malik, FOUR, short and wide, Malik flat-bats it over point and runs away to the third man fence. Rameez on air calls it as 'Sania Mirza's forehand smash'.

3.1 - Broad to Hafeez, FOUR, Broad bangs it short, but he doesn't get good height on it. Hafeez easily gets on top of the bounce and pulls it behind square. It crashes into the ad-cushions
