England will start day three of the first Test against Pakistan in the United Arab Emirates on 56-0, having held out during the remaining 21 overs on day two.
However, the day belonged to Pakistan as they declared in their first innings with a score of 523-8, thanks in part to a knock of 245 from Shoaib Malik.
That was Malik's first ever double-century, while Asad Shafiq hit his eighth century before he was trapped lbw by Mark Wood for 107.
It proved to be a tough outing for England spinner Adil Rashid, who ended with figures of 0-163, which is the worst by any Test bowler on debut.
In reply, captain Alastair Cook (39) and new opening partner Moeen Ali (15) guided England through to the close of play without any scares, yet they still trail the hosts by 467 runs.
