0.1

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, 5 wides, wow, this start is almost Harmison-like, well well wide, but down the leg side and swinging away further, for once Kamran cannot blamed and England are away with a boundary

0.1

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, better this time, around off stump and moving away from the left hander, Strauss has had all kinds of problems with Amir this series, and that's the area to trouble him

0.2

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, a touch wider this time and Strauss can leave along more comfortably, he's pacing around between deliveries, clearly some nerves there

0.3

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, touch too short from Amir, it will not take him long to find the right length and line, but Strauss gets another valuable sighter

0.4

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, beaten! First one of the match! Amir locates the full length and the off-stump channel, Strauss nibbles and misses

0.5

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, too wide this time, Strauss happily lifts his bat out of harm's way

0.6

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, fuller and straighter, clipped neatly but straight to the man at short midwicket

2.1

Mohammad Amir to Cook, 1 no ball, no-ball this time from Amir, rare from him, the delivery was pretty decent though, swinging away a fraction. Yikes, on replay that was an enormous no-ball, good half a metre over the line

2.1

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, oh no! Pakistan oh Pakistan. Dropped!, easy chance too. Perfect delivery from Asif, full, jagging away, squaring Cook up to take regulation edge that flies straight to Umar Akmal at third slip, who spills the chance. Amir is furious, and rightly so.

2.2

Mohammad Amir to Cook, FOUR, how often do you see this!? The drop catch is followed by a boundary. Amir finding a thicker edge this time that flies into the gap between third slip and gully for four

2.3

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, brilliant bowling here, another edge found, Cook looking tentative again, but this time it goes along the ground to gully

2.4

Mohammad Amir to Cook, 1 run, inswinger this time and Cook will be relieved to get off strike, working it through to square leg for one

2.5

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, 1 run, Strauss is away, clipping off his hip down to fine leg for a single

2.6

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, oooh, play and a miss outside off. This is a touch ugly from Cook, flat footed and swishing an attempted drive well away from his body outside off stump, but missing

4.1

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, there is plenty happening with the ball at the moment, swinging and seaming and Strauss is happy here to leave alone outside off

4.2

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, Amir forces a shot this time, aiming fuller and straighter, Strauss punches a drive firmly to cover

4.3

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, good judgement from Strauss here, just, it was a touch shorter and seaming into Strauss who thought about playing before thinking better of it at the last moment

4.4

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, more comfortable leave this time for the England captain

4.5

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, cracking delivery, wide of the crease Amir angles it in before jagging it away off the seam, Strauss was already committed to play and could only hang his bat as the ball whistled past the edge

4.6

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, more solidly played this time by Strauss, rocking forward to block

6.1

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, too wide from Amir here, swinging away from a well outside off and Strauss gets the luxury of a leave

6.2

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, once again this is a touch too wide, Strauss is making a big effort to leave as many as he can outside off

6.3

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, Amir is not at all happy with the footholes, scratching away like a hen, and once again this is too wide to draw shot

6.4

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, much better from the bowler, arrowing into Strauss and beating him for pace as he tried to work it into the leg side

6.5

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, poor shot, having worked hard to leave everything outside off, Strauss has a wholly swish at a full ball, luckily for him, finding nothing but thin air

6.6

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, no run, this time Strauss leaves alone extravagantly, knowing that was what he should have done with the last delivery

8.1

Mohammad Amir to Strauss, 3 runs, good shot this, good intent from Strauss, getting forward positively and punching a drive past the bowler for three

8.2

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, Cook gets to leave alone here outside off stump, and looks thoroughly pleased to have been given the chance to

8.3

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, wider of the crease here, which draws Cook into a defensive shot he probably could have left, as it is, it was played solidly

8.4

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, Review Cook given out caught behind but Cook asks for a second opinion. Well well well, he's missed that by a long way. Good option from Cook, good delivery from Amir though, seaming it away late at a full length and drawing Cook into a defensive prod

8.5

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, this is such a testing spell of new-ball bowling from these two, Cook is battling very hard here and gets behind a back-foot block

8.6

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, fired down the leg side, Cook flaps at it but misses

12.1

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, full and slanting in a touch through the air from over the wicket. Trott leans forward and defends solidly to extra cover

12.2

Mohammad Amir to Trott, 3 runs, caressed past a diving cover fielder! The ball was similar to the last, this time Trott took a step down the wicket and followed through with the shot slightly more to pick up runs as the ball rolled into the outfield

12.3

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, shaping away through the air, Cook shuffles across to off and shoulders arms

12.4

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, full on off stump, punched firmly to mid-on

12.5

Mohammad Amir to Cook, no run, oh, well bowled, he beats the outside edge as Cook comes forward and there's half an appeal from the bowler but the bat clipped pad again

12.6

Mohammad Amir to Cook, OUT, gone! That one is out. Perfect line outside off and lovely shape away from Cook who pushed forward with the edged pouched safely by Kamran Akmal

AN Cook c †Kamran Akmal b Mohammad Amir 10 (65m 37b 1x4 0x6) SR: 27.02

14.1

Mohammad Amir to Pietersen, OUT, gone! Pietersen's nightmares continues as he goes first ball and it was a horrid shot. Wide of off stump and Pietersen chased it without any footwork and sent a low edge to the keeper

KP Pietersen c †Kamran Akmal b Mohammad Amir 0 (5m 1b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

14.2

Mohammad Amir to Collingwood, no run, on middle and off, comes solidly forward and blocks to mid-off...that's how to play the first ball of an innings

14.3

Mohammad Amir to Collingwood, no run, swings into Collingwood this time and takes the pad but it was going down the leg side

14.4

Mohammad Amir to Collingwood, OUT, ooh, big appeal from Amir and was it pad first? Will they review it? Yes, they will. This looks out to me, pad before bat. What will the third umpire say? Hawkeye says it's hitting flush on middle. GONE! It's been overturned. Brilliant bowling from Amir, what a cricketer he is.

PD Collingwood lbw b Mohammad Amir 0 (3m 3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

14.5

Mohammad Amir to Morgan, no run, full toss fired down the leg side, just trying a little too hard

14.6

Mohammad Amir to Morgan, no run, that's better, full on middle and Morgan squeezes it into the leg side

16.1

Mohammad Amir to Morgan, OUT, GONE! Another goes, what a collapse this is from England and what a spell from Amir. Full on off stump, more late swing finds the outside edge of Morgan's bat and it flies low to second slip where Hameed holds a sharp, low catch

EJG Morgan c Yasir Hameed b Mohammad Amir 0 (7m 3b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

16.5

Mohammad Amir to Prior, no run, back of a length and defended into the on side

16.6

Mohammad Amir to Prior, no run, GONE?! Is this another one...Prior has driven it to gully but the fielder, Umar Amin on as sub, isn't sure and asks for the replay. More drama. This is conventional use of the third umpire, not a review. The pictures aren't great quality and it's not out

18.1

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, pushed across Trott who is well down the pitch and leaves alone

18.2

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, that's a good one outside off which climbs past the edge, but Trott just about manages to draw the bat inside the line

18.3

Mohammad Amir to Trott, (no ball) 1 run, ooh, that's a good short ball. The surprise option from Amir and Trott got into a tangle as he fended into the leg side but no short leg in place...however, Amir had overstepped by a long way

18.3

Mohammad Amir to Prior, no run, my goodness, another cracker outside off which started to come into Prior before holding its line...just too good

20.2

Mohammad Amir to Prior, 3 runs, well played by Prior, comes forward and guides it through backward point all along the ground but it pulls up short of the boundary

20.3

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, jeepers, that's a wild shot from Trott and very out of character as he chases this one outside off when he shouldn't have been anywhere near it

20.5

22.5

Mohammad Amir to Prior, no run, pushed across very wide outside but it went through with some pace to the keeper

22.6

Mohammad Amir to Prior, no run, ooh, there's a good one that beats the outside edge with Prior playing from the crease

36.1

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, good start from Amir, throwing the ball up full and wide of Trott's off stump, it's the line that has got Trott in trouble a couple of times this series, but this time it's mistimed to point

36.2

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, here again Amir goes full and pushes across the right hander but Trott watches carefully to leave alone

36.3

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, a touch shorter and a touch closer to off stump, Trott again surveys the ball intently as he leaves alone

36.4

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, Trott shuffles across his stumps, as is his way, but does nothing more than lift the bat out the way

36.5

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, Trott will appreciates these, he gets another chance to leave alone outside off

MJ Prior c †Kamran Akmal b Mohammad Amir 22 (106m 72b 2x4 0x6) SR: 30.55

38.3

Mohammad Amir to Swann, no run, ooh, good ball first up, very full and close to off stump as Swann leaves alone

38.4

Mohammad Amir to Swann, OUT, another duck! Swann gone this time! Amir has six and England are in a shambles. Amir, as he so often does, found a good length and off-stump line, Swann drove loosely at it, skewing it airily to gully who held an excellent take

GP Swann c Azhar Ali b Mohammad Amir 0 (1m 2b 0x4 0x6) SR: 0.00

38.5

Mohammad Amir to Broad, 1 run, Broad's away straight away, Amir looking for a stump-splattering yorker but Broad managed to jab it away behind square on the leg side for a single

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, an extra fielder has come into place in the slips but Trott leaves alone

40.5

Mohammad Amir to Trott, no run, good line from Amir, forcing Trott to defend from under his eyes

40.6

Mohammad Amir to Trott, 1 run, fifty for Trott and what a fifty it's been. In the most hostile of situations he's remained remarkably calm and uncluttered, he reaches the landmark by dead-batting into the leg side and stealing a quick single

42.1

Mohammad Amir to Broad, no run, good shot for none here, really stylish shot from Broad, check-driving crisply to mid-off

Mohammad Amir to Broad, no run, back of a length again and Broad is a little bit more tetchy on this defensive block

42.4

Mohammad Amir to Broad, no run, fuller length, trying to catch Broad hanging on the back foot, but it's nudged quietly into the leg side

42.5

63.1

Mohammad Amir to Trott, 1 run, Trott wristily flicks a back of a length delivery out to deep square leg

63.2

Mohammad Amir to Broad, SIX, bouncer from Amir, Broad takes his eyes off the ball as he swipes a hook but he's got enough on that to send it over square leg for six! There was a man out for that shot, but it sailed over his head!

63.3

Mohammad Amir to Broad, 1 run, inside edged into the 'top of the inner thigh', Broad runs through for one but he's down with his head between his knees and breathing hard now... He'll be ok

72.1

Mohammad Amir to Trott, 1 run, around the wicket from Amir and it finds an inside edge that squirts behind square on the leg side for a single

72.3

Mohammad Amir to Broad, no run, ooops, first poor shot from Broad in a while, swishing without much feet movement outside off stump

72.4

Mohammad Amir to Broad, no run, beaten again! This time it was a touch shorter and Broad stood tall to aim another back-foot punch, but found nothing but thin air

72.5

Mohammad Amir to Broad, no run, good delivery from Amir on and around off stump, this time Broad defends more solidly

72.6

Mohammad Amir to Broad, no run, slower ball to finish, deceived the batsman too, Broad plays too early and ends up skewing an inside edge to midwicket

74.2

Mohammad Amir to Broad, 2 leg byes, Amir just loses his line a fraction, firing it down the leg side and it clips the pads and heads towards the fine leg boundary, very valuable runs for England before the new ball

74.3

Mohammad Amir to Broad, FOUR, shot! Lovely shot from Broad, read the slower ball and eased his arms through the line, sending it well over mid-off for a boundary. Hugely valuable runs these
