England hammer Pakistan to win second Test and square series
England thrashed Pakistan by an innings and 55 runs to win the second Test at Headingley on Sunday.
Victory, completed inside three days, saw England level the two-match series at 1-1 after Pakistan won the first Test at Lord's by nine wickets.
It was also England's first victory in a Test match since they beat the West Indies at Lord's in September, with the side having endured a winless run of six defeats in eight Tests coming into this fixture.
By sharing the spoils in this short campaign, England also avoided a third successive series defeat after reverses in Australia and New Zealand.
