England thrash Pakistan by 354 runs in 1st Test

NOTTINGHAM, England (AP) — England thrashed Pakistan by 354 runs in the first Test yesterday with James Anderson ending the match with career-best figures of 11-71.

Pakistan were all out for 80 in their second innings — their lowest ever total against England — with Anderson taking 6-17.

Stuart Broad added 2-23 and Steven Finn took 2-28 at Trent Bridge, while Imran Farhat was the top scorer with 17 as the Test ended before lunch on the fourth day.

Pakistan’s previous lowest Test score against England was 87 in 1954 at Lord’s when the match was drawn with three days lost to bad weather.

“We’re very satisfied with what we’ve achieved,” England captain Andrew Strauss said. “Our bowling was first class on a wicket that helped a lot and we’re very happy, but we’re conscious that this is the first match of a four-match series.”

Pakistan captain Salman Butt said his side was easily beaten.

“Obviously it’s not a good performance, but it’s the first Test of four and it’s good that it happened early,” Butt said. “We need better fielding and for the third and fourth bowlers to support the seamers, but the same thing happened in the first Test (against Australia) and the second (Test) we won.”

The Pakistan Cricket Board announced later yesterday that Mohammad Yousuf has come out of retirement to bolster the batting for the second Test, which starts Friday at Edgbaston in Birmingham. Uncapped left-arm spinner Raza Hasan was also called up and Danish Kaneria was dropped after taking 1-171 in the first Test.

Yousuf retired from international cricket in March after the PCB suspended him indefinitely for alleged infighting during the recent winless tour of Australia.

Pakistan began the morning session on 15-3, needing an unlikely total of 435 to win. The batsmen offered minimal resistance, with seven wickets going for 65 runs.

Imran Farhat was their top scorer with 17.
