331 runs and 6 wickets in the day for England. That’s some effort.

Superb stuff, I put it on when I got up and couldn't believe my eyes, pity Root couldn't have made it to 300 as well though, Brook as been very consistent since he arrived on the England scene he's a massive talent.
 
Harry Brook became the first batsman to score hundreds in 4 consecutive Tests on Pakistan soil.
He's also scored more Test runs in Pakistan, than he has scored in England.
Here is his innings by innings record.
PS I can spend far too much time playing with this stats machine on Cricinfo. I often find myself looking back at England matches of the early 80’s when I was discovering my love for the game.

 
We’ve said this a number of times since McCullum and Stokes took the reins but if they wrap this up tomorrow it’s up there with the great test wins of the lot.
 
And there it is. Another remarkable test match and another involving Pakistan.
