London: Pakistan cricket team registered a brilliant victory over hosts England in the first Test at Lord's cricket ground to take 1-0 lead in the four-match Test series here on Sunday.


Pakistan, troubled by lack of cricket at home, played superb cricket all through the four days of play in this match, producing some brilliant performances by several players.

The most important of them all was leg-spinner Yasir Shah's 10-wicket haul in his first Test at the Lord's. Shah, who came into this series after serving a 3-month ban for taking a prohibited drug, impressed all with his flight and control.

Pakistan's 42-year-old captain Misbah-ul-Haq also hit a wonderful century in the first innings to lay foundation for a significant first-innings lead.

To cap off this inspiring performance, Pakistan cricket team celebrated in a unique way. Have a look at it:
