England batsmen ruined the terrific job by seam bowlers Stuart Broad and James Anderson to end up at 6-104 against Pakistan on a bowler-dominated opening day of the third Test on Friday.

Broad bulldozed the top order with 4-36 and Anderson captured 3-35 to shoot out Pakistan for 99 but left-arm spinner Abdur Rehman grabbed 3-23 before the top-ranked team overhauled Pakistan’s sixth lowest total against England.

Captain Andrew Strauss scored a fighting unbeaten 41 on an eventful Friday when three rulings by one of the best umpires in the world, Simon Taufel, were overturned.

Skipper Misbah-ul-Haq’s decision to bat first backfired as Broad and Anderson reduced Pakistan to 5-21.

Asad Shafiq fought a lone battle with 45 off 78 balls.
