1st Test, Lord's: Yasir Shah stars in Pakistan's 75-run win over England

LONDON: Mohammad Amir took the winning wicket on his return to Lord's after a spot-fixing scandal as Pakistan beat England by 75 runs on the fourth day of the first cricket test on Sunday.


Leg-spinner Yasir Shah grabbed 4-69 for his maiden test haul of 10 wickets as England was bowled out for 207 after Pakistan set a challenging target of 283 to win.


Jonny Bairstow top scored with 48 and defied Pakistan for over two hours with Chris Woakes (23) in a seventh-wicket stand of 56 but once Shah removed both, Amir wrapped up the innings quickly.


Seamer Rahat Ali (3-47) rocked England's top order before Shah took charge on a wearing wicket.


Earlier, Pakistan was bowled out for 215, after resuming on 214-8, for an overall lead of 282.


BRIEF SCORES


Pakistan: 339 (Misbah 114, Shafiq 73, Woakes 6-70) and 215 (Shafiq 49, Sarfraz 45, Woakes 5-32) beat England: 272 (Cook 81, Yasir 6-72) and 207 (Bairstow 48, Yasir 4-69, Rahat 3-47) by 75 runs.
