Pakistan have taken control of the third Test against England in Dubai after their batsmen provided resistance in the second innings.

England began the day on 104-6 after 16 wickets fell on day one and could only advance to 141 before being bowled out.

Andrew Strauss's slow-going half-century was the only highlight as Abdur Rehman took five wickets for Pakistan.

James Anderson claimed the wicket of Umar Taufeeq early on before Pakistan were reduced to 28-2 when Mohammed Hafeez was trapped lbw by Monty Panesar.

However, Younus Khan and Azhar Ali steadied the ship with Khan reaching 50 as Pakistan reached 120-2 at tea with a lead of 78.
