Do England have any hope of saving the game?
"Small - very tiny," former England batsman Geoffrey Boycott told BBC Test Match Special.
"If Root goes quickly tomorrow, it's game over. You've got Jonny Bairstow and Root, then you're down to people who failed - Ben Stokes, a keeper out of nick in Jos Buttler and a tail who won't be able to read the leg-spinner.
"If England can get their act together and bat properly, there are no terrors in the pitch."
England assistant coach Paul Farbrace told TMS: "There's no point turning up tomorrow if we don't believe we can survive.
"There aren't many demons out there. It is turning but it's slow turn and it's about application."
"This pitch is slow and England are capable of bouncing back. It won't be easy for us."
Younus said: "This pitch is slow and England are capable of bouncing back. It won't be easy for us."

It was obviously disappointing to lose, but I have a lot of respect for the fight the tail showed at the end. To take the game into the final hour was way beyond my wildest expectations. England have unfortunately been on the wrong end of two nail biting finishes.
