| England 1st innings | R | M | B | 4s | 6s | SR |
 | AJ Strauss* | c †Kamran Akmal b Wahab Riaz | 15 | 50 | 34 | 3 | 0 | 44.11 |
| 10.3 147.2 kph, huge appeal for a catch behind! Is that a maiden Test wicket for Wahab Riaz? Umpire Hill says no... but they think about it and refer it. Well, he's got a huge edge on that so the decision's over-turned and that's out! Great moment for the young bowler. And despite the fairly lifeless wicket England have lost both openers 35/2
|
| AN Cook | c †Kamran Akmal b Mohammad Asif | 6 | 8 | 7 | 1 | 0 | 85.71 |
| 1.6 130.7 kph, Cook's misery continues! He's undone by some regulation swing bowling from Asif, and Kamran's pouched the edge easily. Asif had swung the last few back in to the left-handed batsman but got this one to just hold its line on off stump. A little nick, a regulation catch, and first blood to Pakistan! 9/1
|
| IJL Trott | c Yasir Hameed b Wahab Riaz | 12 | 61 | 34 | 2 | 0 | 35.29 |
| 14.1 148.0 kph, what a good catch! Wahab Riaz gets his second wicket and Trott is gone. A thick edge flew quickly to the cordon and Yasir Hameed at second slip has dived to his right to take a sharp chance 40/3
|
| KP Pietersen | c †Kamran Akmal b Wahab Riaz | 6 | 59 | 29 | 0 | 0 | 20.68 |
| 21.5 143.5 kph, Riaz gets another one on debut! That ball was on off stump and just nipping away a touch, Pietersen got a thin edge through to Kamran and KP was walking before the umpire gave his decision 67/5
|
| PD Collingwood | b Mohammad Amir | 5 | 7 | 7 | 1 | 0 | 71.42 |
| 15.5 138.4 kph, oh, Collingwood has played on! He's chopped down on a ball angled across him and it's bounced into the off stump, removing just the one bail 47/4
|
| EJG Morgan | c †Kamran Akmal b Wahab Riaz | 17 | 54 | 43 | 2 | 0 | 39.53 |
| 27.4 144.6 kph, great bowling! Got him this time! The line was closer to off stump, just a fraction of movement away off the pitch and Morgan could only fence an edge through to Akmal! England in huge trouble and Calamity Kamran has caught everything on offer today! 74/6
|
| MJ Prior† | not out | 84 | 196 | 127 | 14 | 0 | 66.14 |
| |
| GP Swann | c Umar Akmal b Mohammad Asif | 8 | 17 | 12 | 2 | 0 | 66.66 |
| 30.6 128.7 kph, gone this time! Swann departs and Asif has a second wicket! Lovely bowling, so simple, touch of away movement, finds a thickish outside edge and there is nothing as solid as Pakistan's slip catching at the moment! 94/7
|
| SCJ Broad | lbw b Wahab Riaz | 48 | 124 | 77 | 7 | 0 | 62.33 |
| 58.4 112.2 kph, slower ball from Riaz, the ball strikes Broad on the front pad to elicit a huge appeal... The Umpire agrees, and that looked really adjacent. But Broad's asked for the review here... Nope, that's stone dead and Riaz has five on debut! 213/8
|
| JM Anderson | lbw b Mohammad Asif | 0 | 5 | 4 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |
| 59.3 128.3 kph, Asif snakes one back in the other way, Anderson played for the outswinger and tried to defend at the last moment, but ball beats bat and that looked out straight away. Anderson asks for a review, but that's very optimistic indeed - that would've snapped leg stump in half 214/9
|
| ST Finn | lbw b Saeed Ajmal | 0 | 20 | 6 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |
| 62.3 90.7 kph, haha, Yousuf will be celebrating this! The drop catch costs just a run. Finn pops forward to defend and it spins past the bat and thuds into the pad in front of off. So, England end all out for 233. 233/10

| Pakistan 1st innings | R | M | B | 4s | 6s | SR |
| Imran Farhat | b Anderson | 11 | 72 | 55 | 2 | 0 | 20.00 |
| 17.3 140.9 kph, Anderson with the breakthrough! Farhat has worked so hard to try and get through to tonight but this was full and outside off, inviting a drive which came off the inside edge and ricochetted on to off stump! Big breakthrough for England, they really needed that 48/1
|
| Yasir Hameed | c †Prior b Finn | 36 | 77 | 53 | 6 | 1 | 67.92 |
| 18.2 140.0 kph, but that is out! It was a similar ball, rising from a length and moving away off the seam. Again Hameed looked very uncertain, being squared up at the crease and just pushing at the ball outside off to send a regulation nick through to Prior. England strike early! 48/2
|
| Wahab Riaz | lbw b Swann | 27 | 115 | 75 | 3 | 0 | 36.00 |
| 42.1 84.8 kph, and once again Swann has struck in the first over of a spell! He's around the wicket to Riaz, who tries to sweep and is struck on the front pad, Steve Davis gives it lbw and after checking with Yousuf, Riaz wants a review. It was pitching in line, moving on with the arm to clip the off stump - that's out! 110/4
|
| Salman Butt* | c †Prior b Swann | 17 | 35 | 24 | 3 | 0 | 70.83 |
| 26.2 85.3 kph, edged, and gone! Butt stepped back and across this time, looking to cut as Swann came round the wicket, and got a thick edge as the ball spun away from him. Prior juggled the chance once, twice... and then held it to spark the celebrations! There was a clear edge and a big deflection on that, and Butt walks off as soon as the catch is held 76/3
|
| Mohammad Yousuf | c & b Swann | 56 | 155 | 108 | 8 | 0 | 51.85 |
| 62.4 82.0 kph, gone! Yousuf departs, clipping a return catch back to the bowler! He looked to drive the ball through cover but the ball took the inner half of the bat to present the bowler with a simple caught-and-bowled chance. That's massive. How will Pakistan respond? And what's more, Swann a recent addition to the ICC's Cricketer of the Year shortlist, has reached 100 Test wickets! 179/5
|
| Azhar Ali | not out | 92 | 250 | 176 | 15 | 0 | 52.27 |
| |
| Umar Akmal | run out (Morgan) | 38 | 59 | 50 | 4 | 1 | 76.00 |
| 79.3 from Collingwood, oh no! Umar Akmal is gone, run out! Silly stuff there as he's pushed it to cover, taken off and been sent back by Azhar, Akmal slipped as he turned back and the throw from Morgan was a direct hit - the third umpire is called on and he says that is out 236/6
|
| Kamran Akmal† | c Morgan b Broad | 10 | 19 | 16 | 1 | 0 | 62.50 |
| 83.1 142.5 kph, caught! Akmal flashed hard outside off, trying to force a drive through point but it's gone a bit finer than he wanted, straight into the hands of Morgan at backward point. Good catch - that ball was travelling. 251/7
|
| Mohammad Amir | c †Prior b Broad | 6 | 31 | 20 | 1 | 0 | 30.00 |
| 89.5 141.1 kph, not so secure any more! Amir has gone! Broad went slightly fuller and Amir prodded at it outside off, just a faint edge and Prior does the rest. This game continues to rattle along! 269/8
|
| Saeed Ajmal | b Anderson | 0 | 3 | 2 | 0 | 0 | 0.00 |
| 90.2 135.5 kph, Cleaned up! Ajmal comes forward and eases into a perfect forward defence... but he's played down the wrong line and the ball clips the top of off stump 270/9
|
| Mohammad Asif | c Anderson b Swann | 8 | 48 | 25 | 1 | 0 | 32.00 |
| 100.2 82.7 kph, all over now! I'm not sure Ali will be too pleased with this! He's left stranded on 92 as Asif swishes a gentle catch to mid off. Nice moment here where Kevin Pietersen gives Ali a pat on the back for his innings. Pakistan have a 75-run first-innings lead and Swann finishes with 4 for 68 308/10
