Pakistan mauls England
Print Edition
Pakistan wrapped up a crushing nine-wicket victory over England yesterday to inflict the hosts’ first defeat in a May test match at Lord’s in London. England’s last four wickets tumbled in 27 minutes and Pakistan knocked off the 64 runs it needed in less than an hour on the fourth day to put the touring side 1-0 up in the two-match series. England resumed on 235 for six after Jos Buttler and debutant Dom Bess had shared an unbroken partnership of 125 in the final session on Saturday to save their team from a humiliating innings defeat. Buttler fell in the second over, trapped leg before wicket by Mohammad Abbas for 67 and failing to get the decision overturned on review, with the 20-year-old Bess out last for 57 as the hosts were dismissed for 242 — England losing its last four wickets for the addition of six runs. James Anderson bowled Azhar Ali for four before Imam-ul-Haq (18 not out) and Haris Sohail (39 not out) shared an unbroken second-wicket stand of 54 to see Pakistan to its target.
