Cricket News: England to take on Pakistan in 1st Test in Manchester

Straight from a 2-1 series win over the West Indies, England will get underway in the first of their Three Tests against Pakistan at Old Trafford in Manchester. Pacer Chris Woakes took 5-50 as England won the third Test by 269 runs to clinch the series, but with England's current embarrassment of bowling riches also including James Anderson and Stuart Broad. England haven't won a Test series against Pakistan since 2010, with Pakistan winning in the UAE in 2011/12 and 2015/16 while the last two series in England - 2016 and 2018 both ended in draws.
