After bowling out England for 267 in their first innings on Thursday, Pakistan faced trouble due to its slumping top order, as they lost three early wickets on the first day.

The three-test series is level at 1-1.

Earlier, Jamie Smith (89) and Ben Duckett (52) scored fifties but England's most frontline batters overall struggled against the turning ball.

Pakistan's spin duo of Sajid Khan and Noman Ali ran through the England lineup as they claimed six and three wickets, respectively, followed by Zahid Mahmood took one wicket.

After departure of skipper Ben Stokes (12), Jamie Smith revived his side by scoring crucial 89 runs off 119 balls along with Atkinson's 39 off 71. Zahid removed Smith in 62nd over, whereas, Atkinson was caught and bowled by Noman.
