Let it be known that England had beat Pakistan by three wickets to win the first Test at Old Trafford on Saturday in dramatic fashion. The hosts, set a stiff 277 to win, were struggling at 117-5 on the fourth day.
But Chris Woakes saw them to victory with 84 not out after sharing a stand of 139 with Jos Buttler (75) that turned the tide. England are now 1-0 up in a three-match series being played behind closed doors because of the coronavirus.
Second test will start on August 13 in Southampton.
