and that's the victory! Another short ball, a swirling top-edge. Jones with the gloves calls for it and hurtles forward, clutches it well, and flings it high into the air to spark the celebrations!

England have won with two days to spare, by an innings and 120 runs. It's a crushing result, their most emphatic performance in recent memory, and only the team's third win in 11 matches since the Ashes. They lead the series 1-0, with the third Test starting at Headingley on Friday.
Superb work from Jones, who has four catches and a stumping in this innings, yet another five-wicket haul for him. As it is for Steve Harmison, who adds figures of 5 for 57 to his 6 for 19 in the first innings, and Monty Panesar, the only other man to take wickets for England. He has eight to his name, with one run-out completing the tally
That's it from the live commentary team. Hope you've enjoyed the coverage. Don't forget to read Will Luke's bulletin, which will be updated shortly. And check out our match gallery as well. Andrew McGlashan and Osman Samiuddin will also be filing their views, with much emphasis, no doubt, on the performances of Monty Panesar and Steve Harmison. From myself, Andrew Miller, as well as Martin Williamson and Jenny Thompson, goodbye and see you next time. And don't forget to send us your feedback - good, bad or ugly.
