Pakistan beat England in second Test

Pakistan on Saturday beat England in their second test cricket match by 72 runs. With this victory, Pakistan won the series 2-0 in the three-match series.

Abdur Rehman picked 6-25 and Saeed Ajmal 3-22 while AJ Strauss top-scored with 32.

Pakistan's spinners were rampant as they reduced England to 39-4 at tea in the second test on Saturday, with the tourists needing another 106 to win and square the three-match series.

England had appeared in control, bowling out Pakistan for 214 in their second innings, but their top order again failed abjectly to deal with Pakistan's spinners.

Earlier, Monty Panesar bagged six wickets in his first test since 2009.

Abdur Rehman was awarded the Man of the Match award for his 6 wickets.
