BIRMINGHAM, England (AP) Pakistan dismissed dangerman Joe Root as England extended its lead to 159 at tea on the fourth day of the third test on Saturday.
Root, dropped on 25, went on to score 62 at Edgbaston and shared a 95-run partnership for the third wicket with James Vince (42). Pakistan removed both batsmen after lunch as England reached 262-4.
Root top-edged leg-spinner Yasir Shah to short fine leg and Vince edged Mohammad Amir immediately after Pakistan took the second new ball.
Gary Ballance was unbeaten on 21 and Jonny Bairstow not out on 2 at tea.
Earlier, Sohail Khan and Amir claimed Alastair Cook (66) and Alex Hales (54) in successive overs after England resumed at 120-0.
Cook's loose drive was smartly snapped by Shah diving at point with England on 126 and, at the same total, Younis Khan plucked a two-handed low catch at second slip to dismiss Hales.
