History warns England that victory in the first Test is all but impossible after they conceded a lead of 146 to Pakistan in Dubai. To dismiss Pakistan for 338 on a decent batting surface was a redoubtable effort by the England attack, but it would require an immense turnaround for them to win the match from here. They conceded another 50 runs on the third morning in removing Pakistan's last three batsmen. Adnan Akmal, one of three Pakistan brothers to play Test cricket, tried to carry the game out of England's reach, advancing his overnight 24 not out to 61 before he was last out, stumped by three yards against Graeme Swann as he sought a single to farm the strike.

The umpire, Billy Bowden, adjudged that Swann had Ajmal caught at short leg, the batsman called for a review, and replays showed no flick of the glove as the ball deflected off the pad to Alastair Cook. According to Sky TV, Davis then told Bowden that because Hotspot was obscured he had "no conclusive evidence" to overrule his decision. It was so hard to believe on slow-motion replay that Bowden had got it right that Davis would have been better managing without it.

England's mediocre record in Asia is well documented and little illustrates it better than the fact that they have won only two Tests in Asia after conceding a first-innings lead. Both came against Pakistan, 51 years ago in Lahore when the margin was only seven runs, and again in Karachi in 2000 when the margin was again slim, 17 runs and England won in the dark. There has been a lot of talk about England being back in the game. If they are, they are hanging on by the slenderest thread.
