Pint-sized TMS: Too many dots for Andrew Samson!
After an attritional Test match between Pakistan and England in Abu Dhabi, there's one statistic which is even too much for the Test Match Special scorer Andrew Samson.
England had to settle for a draw after an extraordinary final session on the fifth day of the first Test against Pakistan in Abu Dhabi.
Pakistan seemed to be cruising to a draw before debutant Adil Rashid - who returned 0-163 in the first innings - turned the match with five wickets.
Needing 99 to win, England sent out Jos Buttler and Ben Stokes in the top four but they were eventually beaten by the fading light 25 runs short of a famous victory.
The tourists could not find the boundary frequently enough and finished on 74-4 - with Joe Root 33 not out.
