Rain again wipes out most of play in second cricket test
Pakistan claimed the wicket of opener Rory Burns for a duck to leave England at 7 for 1 in their first innings, before rain forced an early close to day four in the second cricket Test in Southampton.
A little over an hour's play was possible at the start of the day before rain forced the players from the field, and with more bad weather predicted for day five, the match is meandering towards a tame draw.
England bowled out the tourists for 236, with top scorer Mohammad Rizwan (72) being the last Pakistani batsman to be dismissed, and then managed only five overs of their reply.
That was enough time for Burns to lose his wicket as he was caught at second slip by Asad Shafiq off the bowling of Shaheen Afridi in the bowler-friendly conditions.
England lead the three-match series 1-0. The final Test will start in Southampton on Friday.

Tigers keep NRL finals hopes alive
The Wests Tigers have clamied a last-gasp 29-28 win over Canterbury in a 10-try thriller in Sydney.
Luke Brooks nailed a 33-metre field goal with two minutes remaining to break the deadlock after the Tigers appeared set to blow a 16-point lead against the competition cellar dwellers.

In Sunday's other NRL match the Newcastle Knights' 26-24 win over Manly moved them into sixth.
