Home side Pakistan need 157 runs to win on Day 4 of the second Test in Multan on Monday (December 12) but with only six wickets in hand. Youngster Saud Shakeel is batting on 54 off 123 balls with all-rounder Faheem Ashraf as they look to level the three-match Test series 1-1 after losing the first Test in Rawalpindi.
Pakistan, chasing 355 to win in the fourth innings, are 198 for 4 in 64 overs thanks to half-centuries from Imam-ul-Haq and Shakeel on Day 3. Imam was dismissed for 60 off 104 balls, just before stumps on the third day with Jack Leach getting the breakthrough.
The hosts will now bank on Shakeel along with all-rounders Ashraf, Agha Salman and Mohammad Nawaz to their highest successful run-chase at home to set up a thrilling climax to this Test series.
