Play began early at Headingley. Pakistan faced England in the first Test match. Harry Brook removed Pakistani batter Imam-ul-Haq. He went. That catch saw Imam the sixth player from Pakistan to go past 700 runs in one Test match. Imam got 714 runs in the first innings for England's second innings. Even so, the team got bowled out in that first innings.
Further action took place too. Jonathan Bairstow hit a century. He became England's youngest Test captain ever. That knock took him to 1,000 Test runs. Babar Azam departed before Pakistan made it to 100 runs. He could not stop them losing the match.
