The fourth day of the second Test between England and Pakistan was abandoned due to rain at the Rose Bowl Cricket Ground in Southamptom on Sunday.

Only 10 overs were possible on Day 4 before bad light and subsequent rain forced the match officials to declare early stumps. 

Earlier in the day, Pakistan resumed their innings at 223 for nine, with Mohammad Rizwan (60) and Naseem Shah (1) at the crease.

Rizwan was caught at cover point by Zak Crawley off a Stuart Broad delivery in the 92nd over as Pakistan were bundled out for 236 in their first-innings.

In reply, England were reduced to seven for one in their first-innings before rain played the spoilsport for the fourth successive day.

Here are the highlights:
