Michael Atherton and Ramiz Raja discuss the efforts of Sohail Khan and Gary Ballance on day one of the third Test at Edgbaston on the Sky Cricket Podcast.
Having been put in to bat, England were bowled out for 297 to conclude the first day's play with Sohail the star for Pakistan, taking 5-96 on his return to Test cricket.
We join Michael Atherton midway through Sohail's clap press-ups celebration. However, the former England skipper was less impressed with England's early struggles on a flat Edgbaston pitch.
