Jak brought up his maiden test ton and played some excellent shots to reach the three-figure score.
The top-order batsman brought up his 250 with an exquisite shot on the day to further fortify England's grand score.
What an incredible shot to bring up your 250!

However, his long-standing innings came to an end when Asad Shafiq's deceiving delivery caught Zak off guard and the PAK wicketkeeper quickly dislodged the stumps to bring an end to his 267-run innings off 392 balls.
A glorious innings finally comes to an end.
