Pakistan 72 (all out; 39.3 overs)
Umar Amin 23
Umar Akmal 17
Pakistan have been skittled out for a mere 72 after winning the toss and electing to bat first in the second Test against England at Edgbaston.
The tourists opted to make two changes, with wicketkeeper Zulqarnain Haider handed a Test debut at the expense of Kamran Akmal, while off-spinner Saeed Ajmal replaced Danish Kaneria.
England stuck with the same eleven who won the first Test at Trent Bridge by 354 runs and made swift inroads after the tourists won the toss and elected to bat first.
Imran Farhat was the first to go, edging a Stuart Broad to Matt Prior after failing to score from 24 balls faced. Skipper Salman Butt (7) then fell to make the score 9-2, with Steven Finn forcing the left-hander into a thick edge to Graeme Swann at second slip.
Shoaib Malik managed a mere three before he snicked a James Anderson away-swinger and Prior dived to his right to make a fine catch and it was 29-4 when Azhar Ali was trapped leg before wicket by Broad for a 32-ball duck. Umar Akmal managed to make 17 before he was adjudged leg before to a Finn delivery which cut back and kept low.
The tourists' pre-lunch misery was complete when debutant Zulqarnain got a thin edged to his first ball in Test cricket, giving Broad his third wicket.
After the break England continued to do damage, with Umar Amin edging Broad to Paul Collingwood and departing for a determined 23. Anderson then had Umar Gul (1) caught at gully by Kevin Pietersen, before Alastair Cook took a fine running catch off Anderson to get rid of Mohammad Amir for 12.
The innings was over at 72 all out when Mohammad Asif lifted a catch to Pietersen without failing to trouble the scorers.
