Cricket: Despite a rear-guard action from the Sri Lankan tail, England have made a strong start to the First Test, under new skipper Ollie Pope.
Sri Lanka tail wags but England on top | 00:56Pakistan captain Shan Masood was left fuming after a controversial caught-behind decision on day one of the series opener against Bangladesh at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.
A spike appeared on UltraEdge a frame after the ball passed the bat, but eagled-eyed viewers suggested the noise came from the ball flicking Masood’s front pad. Bangladesh's Shoriful Islam successfully appeals for the wicket of Pakistan's Shan Masood.

Ayub, who hit four boundaries and a six, fell late in the day, driving wildly off Hasan Mahmud and was caught at third slip.
