And then there were four. Pakistan’s Salman Agha falls to a reverse swinging ball from Ollie Robinson. DRS gives England the lbw. Pakistan need 84, with four wickets left. Final session on. Drama on.

#ENGvPAK #CricketTwitter

Naseem Shah is bowled first ball. Wait. The bails don't fall. Ollie Robinson can't believe it. "Lower your back lift, Naseem Shah," says Nasser Hussain on air. It's reversing.

#ENGvPAK #CricketTwitter

End of the over. Ollie Robinson walks across, lightly taps the off stump with his foot to check what was going on there. The bail does fall this time. Such is life.

#ENGvPAK #CricketTwitter

New ball has been available but England haven’t taken it. 83rd over. The ball has been reversing. Wise decision. And it’s proven again as Azhar Ali flicks a reverse-swinger straight to Joe Root at leg slip. Robinson is delighted, to say the least. Just 3 wickets remain now

What's the field for Ollie Robinson for Mahmood? A leg slip, a forward short-leg and another very squarish short-leg. Interesting to say the least.

#ENGvsPAK

Will Ben Stokes bring on the seamers from both ends now? Jack Leach had been bowling with Robinson. Time to let reverse create havoc from both ends?

#ENGvsPAK

Remember this was considered an absolute road of a pitch. England then spiced things up by declaring their second innings, setting Pakistan 342 to win in about 100 overs. And now England are doing in Pakistan with the most Pakistani art of them all: reverse swing.

#ENGvsPAK

This is the legspinner Zahid Mahmood’s debut Test. He finished with most expensive figures for a debut in Tests with 33-1-235-4. Now, the Test hangs on his bat. Can he hold on?

#ENGvsPAK

Wow. Three men around the bat for Ollie Robinson. The short leg is so so close, he can pickpocket Zahid Mahmood if he wishes. And two men behind him- squarish and to his left.

#ENGvPAK

For Naseem Shah, James Anderson has a silly point, leg slip, leg gully and a short-leg. Naseem hanging on for his dear life.

#ENGvPAK

Ben Stokes brings himself on to replace Robinson, who gets a high-five from McCullum in the pavilion. Stokes produces the away-reversing ball to both Mahmood and Naseem. When will he shape one in ? Watch out Naseem.

#ENGvPAK

45 minutes remain. 12-13 overs. But the light dips out rather quickly here. So England will have to strike now if they want that famous win. Will they try the new ball or stick to the old reversing one?

#ENGvPAK

Ollie Pope goes diving to his left to pluck a superb catch to take out Mahmood. It was the short one from Anderson on the rib cage, and Mahmood tries to glance, but edges it down leg. Out flies Pope, the wicketkeeper.

#ENGvPAK

5 men close on the leg side for Anderson. The leg slip, the leg gully, short leg, squarish short leg and short midwicket. All of them jump in air to appeal for a lbw against Haris Rauf off Anderson. Umpire gives it out. DRS makes England hop in joy. Just one more left.

#ENGvPAK

Former Australian first class captain Keith Carmody had a field named after him: The Carmody field - he had fielders peppered across the arc from gully to square-leg. Now Anderson extending it to have men around from short covers to short midwicket.

#ENGvPAK

How many English newspaper will go with this photo of the field. Barring the mid-off, they are all clustered around the bat, from short cover to short midwicket. Three in variations of short-leg alone.

#ENGvPAK

When it started Bazball was about the way they batted. By now, it's visible in the way they bowl and field.

#ENGvPAK

OH! What a miss. Naseem Shah had done a Kris Srikkanth type shot through the slips, opening his bat face. But Joe Root at first slip, shuffled to his right, to let the keeper take it but Ollie Pope had frozen, staring at him. The ball flies through to the boundary.

#ENGvPAK

Game resumes after drinks break. Mohammad Ali, the fast bowler on debut, takes time to don his gloves. Ben Stokes shakes his head. so do his team-mates. England ready to bowl, obviously. Pakistan not ready to bat, of course. Around 25 minutes left. Last wicket standing.
#ENGvPAK

Ben Stokes fires in two bouncers at Naseem Show in a row. One cracks his gloves. Surprisingly, Naseem doesn't call the physio to take out some time.

#ENGvPAK

Mohammad Ali even ran all the way across to say something but Naseem just takes strike. Sunil Gavaskar would have been so disappointed with that!

#ENGvPAK

Stokes is the modern-day Jacques Kallis. As far as bowling goes. Like Kallis, he loves his bouncers. At least three in that over to Naseem. Two troubled him and one flew over. Now, Stokes brings in the left-arm spinner Jack Leach instead of Anderson.

#ENGvPAK

8 men around the bat. Short leg on his knee. A very short mid-off and mid-on in. Waiting palms all around Mohammad Ali who has defended pretty stoutly and pretty well so far.

#ENGvsPAK

Ben Stokes runs back to the top of his run-up between deliveries to save time. He has produced two outer edges from Naseem (partly steered) down the ground.

#ENGvPAK

Stokes takes the new ball and sails it down the leg side. "He is rushing here. Needs to gather himself," says Nasser on air. In comes the bouncer. Of course.

#ENGvPAK

With the light set to fade, it remains to be seen how long will the umpires allow the fast bowlers to be on. For the last few days, spinners have been finishing up the day. Robinson and Stokes on now.

#ENGvPAK

Robinson tries a bouncer after Mohammad blocked the length balls pretty comfortably. Mohammad Ali lets that one go and defends the next one. Naseem applauds.

#ENGvPAK

The last wicket pair of Naseem Shah and Mohammad Ali have played out 8.2 overs so far. Just 15 minutes remain now.

#ENGvsPAK

And Jack Leach does it for England. The in-drifter and it beats the forward prod to trap Naseem Shah in plumb. He has taken the DRS. Don't think it's going to change. England on brink of a famous win.

#ENGvsPAK

And it is out. Game over. England have not only shown the world how to play T20 and ODIs. They are now the leaders in Test cricket. Ben Stokes and Brendon McCullum - take a bow!

#ENGvsPAK

"One of the greatest Test match wins you will ever see. One of the greatest Test captaincy you will ever see. Their charismatic captain does it," coos Nasser Hussain on air. Can't argue with that.

#ENGvsPAK

"I don't think I have seen better captaincy than what we have seen this week from that man - Stokes," Nasser, not shy, again. Stokes is wandering around the field, soaking it all in.
