First test match of 4 match series between Pakistan and England will begin from 29 July 25, 2010 at Nottingham. Morgan and Shahzad are succeeded in retaining their places in the test team. Ravi Bopara is the man who is not able to place himself in the test squad.

Shahzad’s selection ahead of Bresnan is due to his moment of ball in the air and also his speed. He will prove to be dangerous against young Pakistan side. Morgan got the chance due to his performance against Bangladesh.

Pakistan’s team will come with high spirit after winning from Australia after 15 years. Pakistan team is consisted of young players and the experience of Muhammad Yousaf and Younis Khan is also missing in the team. Pakistan’s new test captain Salman Butt said that he will work hard in the 4 test matches against England and will try to win the series.

England team consists of Andrew Strauss (capt), James Anderson, Stuart Broad, Paul Collingwood, Alastair Cook, Steven Finn, Eoin Morgan, Kevin Pietersen, Matt Prior (wk), Ajmal Shahzad, Graeme Swann and Jonathan Trott.

Salman Butt said that the young team has a potential to perform well against T-20 Champions in the test matches.
