England’s Test side made an encouraging start to their summer with a comfortable victory over Zimbabwe, winning by an innings and 45 runs. A new moderation in England’s batting was evident in their opening pair, even though they rattled along at more than five runs an over. They simply played the ball on its (de)merits. Good to see him back in the slips, too, after almost a year nursing a finger injury.

A plastic awning covers the face of the Trent Bridge pavilion while it is renovated. And while it has been a contest when Zimbabwe opener Brian Bennett has been batting so forthrightly, posterity might care to draw a similar veil over this game. It has not been a Test so much as a test without a capital letter or, more accurately, a one-sided match. Except that we might come to look back at this opening game of England’s summer as a key moment – and a turning point missed.

Rawalpindi was the 500th Test I’ve covered. Nice symmetry as my first England tour began here in 1977. In a warmup game England scored 64 for nine then, this time they made 112, so things are looking up.
Greetings from Rawalpindi. My first England tour began here in 1977 and tomorrow will be my 500th Test: a series decider, on a turner, and nobody knows the outcome. Such is the continuing fascination of Test cricket!
I’m putting down Josh Hull to become the first England leftarm pace bowler to take 100 Test wickets, and Daniel Hogg to take 150 plus if he stays fit.
