As day four begins at Edgbaston, a Pakistan flag flies at half mast in memory of the victims of the floods in Pakistan, which have already claimed at least 1,600 lives
England hope to remove the last Pakistan wicket as early as possible - and Stuart Broad has Mohammad Asif caught at gully with the 11th ball of the day, leaving England needing 118 to win the Test
But Alastair Cook's disappointing run with the bat for England continues when the Essex opener is comprehensively bowled by Mohammad Amir in the third over of England's chase
Pakistan bring off-spinner Saeed Ajmal into the attack early on, but captain Andrew Strauss tries to calmly steer England towards victory and a 2-0 lead in the series
Zulqarnain Haider, making his Test debut behind the stumps, makes an astonishing one-handed "take" when standing up to the stumps to pace bowler Mohammad Asif, who bowls a bouncer to Jonathan Trott
The England second-wicket pair make steady progress, reaching 71-1 by lunch - 47 short of their target - with Strauss 37 not out and Trott unbeaten on 26
Although it was announced on Sunday that ticket prices would be reduced to £20 for Monday's play, there are still plenty of empty seats as England edge towards victory
After both batsmen reach 50, the match ends in anti-climax as a Strauss edge past the keeper brings the winning run - but England will take a 2-0 lead into the third Test at The Oval on 18 August
