 1st Innings 


England: England got all out at 184 runs,Alastair Cook being the highest scorer for them.Mohammad Abbas & Hasan Ali took 4 wickets each.

Pakistan : Pakistan in reply were all out on 363 runs having a lead of 179 runs.JM Andreson & Ben Stokes taking 3 wickets each.

2nd Innings 

 England : England got all out on 242 runs with some fighting innings from their captain Joe Root (68 runs), Jos Buttler (67 runs), DM Bess (57 runs) giving Pakistan a target of just 64 runs.

Pakistan : Pakistan chased down the target easily, winnings by 9 wickets, Imam-ul-Haq & Haris Sohail leading them to victory.
 

A lot of criticism on captaincy of Joe Root and a big question mark on why he fails to convert those 50s into 100s.

Mohammad Abbas leading Pakistan bowling attack from the front,will England find a way to counter attack ?

The 2nd Test match of the series will start on 1st June 2018 at Headingley cricket ground.Can England draw the Test series by winning the 2nd Test ?
