Pakistan crush England to level series

  • Shah takes five wickets
  • Azhar ends match with big six
  • Series drawn 2-2

Stuart Broad reverse swept Shah straight to Younus Khan at slip and after Steven Finn and James Anderson shared a defiant last-wicket partnership of 32, Anderson was trapped lbw by part-time off-spinner Iftikhar Ahmed for 17.

Azhar smashed Moeen for a huge six to take Pakistan to 42-0 and clinch victory, punching the air in delight before leaving the field with Aslam to warm applause from the sun-baked crowd.

"You expect to win your home series, but Pakistan showed their class - we knew Younus was going to get us eventually as you don't average 50 in more than 100 tests if you're not a class player," England captain Alastair Cook said, referring to the innings of 218 by Younus Khan which set up Pakistan's victory.

Pakistan won the first test at Lord's and England were victorious in Manchester and Birmingham.
