Pakistan v England third Test: day four – in pictures

WICKET! Strauss 26 lbw b Rehman (England 48-1) It was a quicker delivery from Rehman, bowled from over the wicket, spinning in and spitting on past Strauss's bat as he stayed back in the crease. It hit him on the back leg, in front of middle stump. Plumb. I believe that's the word we're looking for. There is one very thankful wicketkeeper out there right now. And indeed, during the celebrations Adnan Akmal gets a quick lecture from his captain about how he should have taken that catch moments beforehand - he had his fingers pointing upwards, rather than downwards Photograph: Philip Brown/Reuters

WICKET! Trott 18 c Rehman b Ajmal (England 85-2) You can't review this one. Trott has gone, done by a doosra that looped up off the top-edge as he tried to play a sweep and landed in Rehman's hands at deep backward square. When is the game not a game? When it's afoot. Which it is now: KP is in Photograph: Paul Childs/Action Images

WICKET! England 116-3 (Pietersen b Ajmal 18) Genius will out. Ajmal has gone around the wicket to Pietersen and bowled him with a wonderful delivery. It drifted on to off stump from slightly wide on the crease and then straightened sharply through the gate as Pietersen's bat came down in its usual arc from gully. The gate was too big, in truth, and again the bat did not come down straight. But it was glorious and surely match-winning bowling. I think Pietersen thought it was the doosra; the keeper Akmal certainly did Photograph: Philip Brown/Reuters

WICKET! England 119-4 (Cook c Younus b Ajmal 49) And now it begins. The doosra is doing for England – not because Ajmal is bowling it, but because they are playing for it. Cook tries to turn a full-length offspinner to leg and gets a leading edge to the left of slip, where Younus Khan dives a long way to take a brilliant two-handed catch. That would have been a wonderful piece of athleticism from a 21-year-old, never mind a 94-year-old like Younus. More fabulous bowling from Ajmal, and Cook falls one short of fifty after an admirable, granite-willed 174-ball innings Photograph: Gareth Copley/Getty Images

WICKET! England 156-5 (Bell c Shafiq b Gul 10) This is one of the most abject dismissals you will see if you live to 474. Umar Gul came back to replace Saeed Ajmal, and Bell was so relieved to see the back of his nemesis that he switched off mentally. When Gul sent down an abymsal wide long hop, Bell played an absent-minded dab-cut that looped straight to point. I can't believe how feeble that was. The best batsman in the world in 2011 has completed a diabolical series: 51 runs at an average of 8.50. He mutters a simple "eff me" as he walks off. He didn't say eff Photograph: Gareth Copley/Getty Images

WICKET! England 159-6 (Morgan c Akmal b Gul 31) It's all over now. Gul switches to around the wicket and strikes with his fourth ball. Morgan played a peculiar, premeditated shot, charging a shortish delivery that reverse-swung just enough to take the thinnest of edges on its way through to Akmal. England have a review left, but Morgan does not abuse it. The shot looked pretty ugly, although it was a storming delivery that moved away and lifted sharply Photograph: Lakruwan Wanniarachchi/AFP/Getty Images

WICKET! England 196-7 (Broad c Taufeeq b Gul 17) Misbah takes the second new ball; that might suit England actually. When I say it might suit England, what I mean is: Gul will probably strike with the first ball with the second new ball. That's exactly what he does. Broad drives it high in the air and straight to Taufeeq at long off. I thought it was a good, authoritative shot and instinctively shouted "Oh yes!" like a moron. In fact long off was back and it was a routine catch. Photograph: Gareth Copley/Getty Images

WICKET! England 203-8 (Swann c Shafiq b Gul 1) A fourth wicket for Umar Gul. Swann leaned into a drive and sliced it low to cover point, where Asad Shafiq took a good catch. The umpires asked Swann to hang around why they checked the no-ball; it was seriously tight, but Gul had a millimetre of his hell behind the line, so Swann has to do one.

WICKET! England 237-9 (Anderson c Younis b Ajmal 9) Poor old Jimmy Anderson had no chance there. He had to face Ajmal, who had switched ends to replace Umar Gul. The first two balls beat the bat; the fifth almost scuttled into the stumps; and the sixth was a quicker one that took the edge of a flashing blade and was beautifully taken by Younus Khan at slip. That was a really sharp catch. As a left-handed lower-order batsman against the best spinner in the world bowling into the rough, Anderson had not a solitary prayer there.

WICKET! England 252 all out (Panesar LBW b Rehman 10) That's it! Panesar misses a sweep at Rehman and is out LBW. He reviewed it, just because he could, but replays showed it was hitting leg stump and that's the end of the game. Photograph: Philip Brown/Reuters

PAKISTAN WIN BY 71 RUNS AND SPINWASH ENGLAND 3-0 They will remember this series until they are rocking in the old-man's chair, because they have taken the No1 team in the world and they have dressed them up real pretty. They have played some glorious cricket, mainly with the ball, and become the first Pakistan side to whitewash England. Photograph: Paul Childs/Action Images

Andrew Strauss's side are gracious in defeat, all coming onto the field to warmly shake their opponents' hands. For them, the question is: to what extent was this an aberration and to what extent was it a regression towards the mean. More the former than the latter, surely, although we will have a better idea after the Sri Lanka series. Still, they are getting better. They lost the first Test by an innings, the second by 72 runs and the third by 71 runs. At this rate they'll be winning Tests against Pakistan by the year 2073 Photograph: Gareth Copley/Getty Images
