Mohammad Hafeez could miss the second Test against New Zealand with a hamstring injury.

The Pakistan batsman, who scored an unbeaten hundred in his side's first-Test win, will be assessed before the start of play in Dubai on Monday.

A minor skull fracture has already ruled out Ahmed Shehzad, and if Hafeez misses out Pakistan will be without both openers from their Abu Dhabi victory.

Taufeeq Umar and Shan Masood are the likely replacements for the second in a three-match series.
