Pakistan sparked a top-order collapse before Jos Buttler led an England fightback as the first Test headed for a dramatic finish at Old Trafford on
England were 167-5 at tea on the fourth day, needing a further 110 runs to reach a challenging target of 277. Only twice has a team chased more than 200 to win in the fourth innings of a Test at Old Trafford, with England making 294-4 against New Zealand in 2008 and 231-3 against the West Indies in 2004.
But wicketkeeper Buttler, who had had a poor match in the field, twice missing Shan Masood on 45 during the Pakistan opener's first-innings 156, counter-attacked. After Mohammad Abbas had pinned Rory Burns lbw, fellow opener Dom Sibley and skipper Root kept Pakistan at bay. But leg-spinner Yasir Shah lured Sibley into an edged drive that was well caught by Asad Shafiq at slip.
But there was no repeat of his Headingley heroics on Saturday when he fell for just nine, with wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan, impressive behind the stumps throughout this match, holding an excellent catch after Stokes got a thin glove to a Yasir googly that bounced.
