There was plenty to smile about for Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq.England contrived to lose the second Test to Pakistan by 72 runs after being dismissed for just 72 in their second innings in Abu Dhabi.
It was a dreadful batting display by the tourists and, following their ten-wicket defeat in the first Test, they have now lost the three-match series to Pakistan.

England were set a target of just 145 to win the match and square the series but only Andrew Strauss (32) and Matt Prior (18) got into double figures.
Abdur Rehman claimed 6-25 from his 10.1 overs and England never got to grips with him. Saeed Ajmal chipped in with 3-22 while Mohammad Hafeez took 1-11 as England subsided.
England had earlier dismissed Pakistan for 214 with Monty Panesar ending with superb figures of 6-62, but it proved to be in vain as they slipped to their first series defeat since 2009.
