England beat Pakistan, England won by an innings and 9 runs

Full marks to England for a demolition job on Pakistan, inside 3 days, Caddick the chief wrecker with good support from Gough and Cork

Pakistan batting was totally inadequate under the conditions at Lord's, they lost the vast majority of wickets behind the stumps, 15 out of 20

This clearly shows lack of technique to play the swinging and seaming ball

The decision not to play a spinner may not have mattered with the fragile batting, but would have been useful

Englands catching was spectacular and equally matched the bowling

The next test will be at Old Trafford on 31 May and please do join us at 10:00GMT
