Pakistan steady after losing openers

Pakistan were 61 runs for two wickets at lunch on the opening day of the second Test against England here at the Sheikh Zayad Stadium on Wednesday.

Batsmen at the crease were Azhar Ali (13) and Younis Khan (6).

After captain Misbah-ul-Haq won the toss and decided to bat, Pakistan openers Mohammad Hafeez and Taufiq Umar succeeded again to record a fifty-plus opening wicket partnership.

However, left-handed batsman Taufiq made exit on 16 when Paksitan reached 51 and ten runs later other opener Hafeez also departed for 31.
