Welcome to the live coverage of the fourth day of the first Test match between Pakistan and England being played at Multan Cricket Stadium in Multan on Thursday. Joe Root is unbeaten after hitting his 35th Test hundred and he also overtook Sir Alastair Cook for the most runs by any English batter in traditional format.

Joe Root celebrated his record-breaking day with a resolute 35th century as England cruised to 492-3 on Day 3 of the first cricket test against Pakistan.

Joe Root is now England's most prolific Test run-scorer, surpassing Alastair Cook in Pakistan, and he has time on his side to go for Sachin Tendulkar's overall record.
