Inzamam, Youhana hit tons

Giles dismissed centurion Yousuf Youhanna, Moin Khan and Shahid Afridi off 31 balls to put the brakes on Pakistan’s scoring spree, finishing with 4-94 to take his tally to 14 wickets in the series.

Gough finished with 3-82 and wrapped up Pakistan’s innings by bowling tail-enders Saqlain Mushtaq for 16 and Waqar Younis for 17.

The home side looked set for a massive total but floundered under England’s steady line and length, losing their last seven wickets for just 82 runs.

Restarting at 292-3, Pakistan added 31 quick runs before England responded through Giles.

The 27-year-old left-armer from Warwickshire took a low, one-handed return catch off his own bowling to send Youhanna back.

Youhanna made 117 during his 313-minute stay at the crease, hitting 14 fours and a six.

Two runs later Haq drove a Craig White outswinger and was well caught by a diving Trescothick for 142.

Haq’s innings lasted 361 minutes, with 22 boundaries. He and Youhanna added 259 runs for the fourth wicket.

Pakistani captain Moin Khan, all-rounder Afridi and Abdur Razzak tried to carry on the innings but fell to Giles and a resurgent English side, who are desperate to scratch their names in history.

No English side has won a Test in Pakistan since Ted Dexter’s 1962 side took a 1-0 series victory, while Pakistan have never lost in this bustling southern port city in 34 Tests.

Khan mistimed a shot and was caught by Graeme Hick for 10, Afridi tried to leave a ball that was pitched on middle stump and was bowled for 10, while Razzak edged one to slip for 21.

Giles bowled 19 overs on day two, taking 4-42.
