On the opening day, Pakistan skipper Shan Masood led from the front and smashed the fastest Test century by a Pakistan captain in over a decade. Masood scored 151 and stitched a 253-run partnership with Abdullah Shafique, who too scored a ton, for the second wicket.

England bowlers had a tough time on a flat Multan surface on the first day.

Pakistan (Playing XI): Saim Ayub, Abdullah Shafique, Shan Masood(c), Babar Azam, Saud Shakeel, Mohammad Rizwan(w), Agha Salman, Aamer Jamal, Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, Abrar Ahmed

England (Playing XI): Zak Crawley, Ben Duckett, Ollie Pope(c), Joe Root, Harry Brook, Jamie Smith(w), Chris Woakes, Gus Atkinson, Brydon Carse, Jack Leach, Shoaib Bashir

Pakistan won the toss and Shan Masood has decided his team will bat first in Multan. Brydon Carse is making his Test debut for England. In the absence of a fully-fit Ben Stokes, Ollie Pope is captaining the English team.
