Shakeel played a brilliant knock of 94 runs to bring Pakistan closer to a win.
Set 355 runs to win, Pakistan began day four of the match on 198/4 with Saud Shakeel unbeaten on 54 runs and Faheem Ashraf on 3. Joe Root removed Ashraf for 10 runs, but then Mohammad Nawaz joined Shakeel and the duo moved forward toward the target at a steady pace.
They added 80 runs for the 6th wicket when Nawaz fell for 45 in 62 balls with 7 fours to his name and one run after Saud Shakeel also fell, caught behind on 94 runs with 8 fours.
However, his dismissal caused quite a furor amongst cricket experts and fans alike.
In the final over of the first session, Wood cramped Shakeel with a similar line, and a faint edge flew towards the wicketkeeper down the leg-side. Shakeel, it seemed, knew he had edged the delivery. Wood led the England appeal and on-field umpires Aleem Dar and Marais Erasmus got together and had a chat before sending the decision to the third umpire.

The soft signal from the on-field officials was out. Third-umpire Joel Wilson had a long look at the replays even as the ball, at one point, looked like it had touched the ground. Another angle suggested that Ollie Pope had got his gloves wrapped around the ball.
"Looks like the gloves are under it, but I can't tell exactly," Wilson said.
With not much evidence to overturn the on-field umpire, Wilson gave Shakeel out, which flashed on the big screen. Saud Shakeel looked distraught as he was dismissed for 94, 6 short of a well-deserved hundred.
