Umar Gul inspires victory in Dubai

Trailing by 146 runs, England made a disastrous start as Umar Gul (4-63) removed Andrew Strauss, Alastair Cook and Kevin Pietersen cheaply.
Spinners Saeed Ajmal and Abdur Rehman then claimed three wickets apiece as England were skittled out for 160.
Pakistan's openers easily knocked off the required 15 runs to seal victory.
Just as it had been in the first innings, England's batting performance made a mockery of their number one Test ranking as their technique and concentration were found wanting.
