Pakistan debutant Razaullah traps Joe Root lbw on first ball in Test cricket
Pakistan's 21-year-old debutant Razaullah struck in his first over at Edgbaston. He trapped England captain Joe Root lbw for 8, and the review showed the ball was hitting the stumps.
That was Razaullah's first Test wicket. It puts him in a small group of debutants who've dismissed Root in this format. England still posted 453.
The pitch offered variable bounce, and Razaullah's early strike gave Pakistan a psychological lift even though they trailed the total.
