England fought back to reduce Pakistan to 73-3 on the first day of the series-deciding in Rawalpindi Thursday, after off-spinner Sajid Khan took six wickets.
  Sajid finished with 6-128 and left-arm spinner Noman Ali took 3-88 after a rearguard 89 by wicketkeeper Jamie Smith enabled England to recover to 267 from a precarious 110-5 at lunch.   At stumps, Pakistan captain Shan Masood and Saud Shakeel were both unbeaten on 16, with the home team trailing by 194 and the match in the balance.
“Smith played a brilliant knock otherwise we could have got them out for under 200,” said Sajid. Brief scores England 267 (J Smith 89, B Duckett 52; S Khan 6-128, N Ali 3-88) v Pakistan 73-3 (S Masood 16*, S Shakeel 16*)
