ABU DHABI (Reuters) - Monty Panesar ripped through Pakistan's top order to reduce the hosts to 125 for four in their second innings at the close of the third day of the second test on Friday, 55 runs ahead of England in an interestingly poised match. Left-arm spinner Panesar, playing his first test match since 2009, dispatched opener Mohammad Hafeez (22), captain Misbah-ul-Haq (12) and Younus Khan (1) at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium. Panesar's exploits left Pakistan struggling on 54 for four with England looking well-placed to avenge their 10-wicket defeat in the series opener last week. ...
