England face a big struggle if they are to win the second Test in Faisalabad after a dramatic second day's play and bet365 now make them a massive 9/1 (10.00) to record a comeback victory.
Inzamam-ul-Haq's century on day two put the home side in control and the loss of three wickets means England will need a big effort from the likes of Andrew Flintoff and Kevin Pietersen if they are to get somewhere near Pakistan's total of 462.
Pakistan are now 11/10 to clinch victory and seal what would be a superb series triumph. The draw, which is a fairly strong possibility if England bat well, is the favourite at 9/10 (1.90).
Pietersen, who is not out on four, is a 5/6 (1.83) chance to score 43 runs or more, while it's the same price that he fails, as he did twice in Multan in the opening Test. Ian Bell, who did well to be 36 not out overnight, is 5/6 (1.83) to score 75 runs or more.
