Abu Dhabi England coach Andy Flower said on Sunday that Pakistan's series-clinching Test win would be a huge boost to the country, but called on his team to show their mettle on subsequent matches in the subcontinent.
Pakistan thumped England by 72 runs in the second Test here on Saturday, taking an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series. They won the first Test by ten wickets in Dubai.
The third and final Test begins in Dubai from February 3.
Under Flower England had been unbeaten in their last nine Test series, which saw them rise to number one in rankings last year.
But after being set a tricky 145-run target to win on Saturday, England were dismissed for a paltry 72 runs as Pakistan's spin bowlers came to the fore.
