Pakistan cruise to victory in fourth Test against England

Pakistan draw the Test series with England after a 10-wicket victory at The Oval.

England and Pakistan share the series after the tourists completed a resounding victory in the final Test at The Oval.

Alastair Cook's men faced an uphill battle to save the Test, having been reduced to 88-4 on Saturday evening, but Jonny Bairstow raised English hopes with 81.

However, when he and Chris Woakes departed from consecutive balls, the hosts were in danger of slumping to an innings defeat.

The tail of Steven Finn (16 not out) and James Anderson (17) did at least force Pakistan to bat again, but with only 40 to chase, the result was in little doubt.

Misbah-ul-Haq's side needed only 13.1 overs to complete a 10-wicket victory, and injury was added to insult when Finn pulled up with a hamstring problem after only two deliveries.

The result leaves England travelling to Bangladesh and India this winter with questions to answer, particularly regarding the makeup of their batting lineup.
