How do you execute the perfect press-up? Fortunately David Lloyd was on hand to offer Misbah-ul-Haq and his team some advice in this area - although whether the tourists will remember it after their 75-run triumph at Lords is an entirely different matter. Mikel Arteta Jersey . Heres what else we learned from four days at Lords... Who needs the UAE?Ok - Lords has long been an inspiration to touring teams but few first-timers make such a mark as skipper Misbah-ul-Haq and leggie Yasir Shah, playing at HQ in his first Test away from Asia. Misbah-ul-Haq celebrated his maiden century at Lords in style Pre-Test doubts about how Pakistans batsmen would fare in English conditions remained unanswered at 77-3 in the first innings (and still do in the case of the openers slots) but enter masterful Misbah to muscle his side to a more than satisfactory total.At 42 years and 47 days, hed seen and done most things in cricket apart from play a Test in England and the manner in which he blunted Englands attack en route to becoming the third oldest player to hit three figures at Lords was indomitable. David Lloyd was on hand to show Misbah-ul-Haq how to do some proper press-ups! Fine - his celebratory press-ups may have been a little flawed but Bumble soon put him right on that score. Pakistan will experience different conditions will differ at Old Trafford, Edgbaston and the Oval but if anything that could well play into the hands of a certain leg-spinner…Yasirs just getting startedIf Yasir can get a first-innings six-for on a gentle Lords surface... Shane Warne has long been a cheerleader of his but the manner in which Yasir exposed Englands long-held frailty against leg-spin was at best unnerving, at worst (for English fans) potentially series-defining even for a bowler who has taken more wickets in 13 Tests than anyone else in history. Yasir Shah stole the show as he claimed five wickets on the second day Joe Roots ill-judged slog-sweep might have got the ball rolling, but such was Yasirs masterful control of drift and turn that the slow bowlers success had a strong sense of inevitability about it.Playing positively, using your feet and hitting straight is all well and good but when positivity masks recklessness (Moeen Ali), youre going to get burnt. Amid all the brouhaha of Yasirs success, the pre-Test soul-searching surrounding Mohammad Amirs return to Test cricket evaporated into a ripple of polite Lords applause.Woakes is un-droppableSouth Africa suddenly seems an age away and thats all credit to Woakes endeavour and mettle. Since claiming two wickets in as many tests on that tour, the Warwickshire all-rounder is a player transformed - proving plenty of people who thought he was no more than a county player wrong in the process. Watch Chris Woakes take his first five-wicket haul in Test cricket Suddenly the prospect of Woakes and Stokes running out at Old Trafford is a real one after the former claimed the best figures for England against Pakistan at Lords since Ian Bothams 8-34 in 1978 with valuable first-innings runs.Extra zip, tighter control and a new-found confidence in the Test arena all added up to a well-merited first 10-wicket Test match haul and suddenly the out-of-sorts Steven Finn (badly out of luck on Saturday) and newcomer Jake Ball (impressive without dazzling) look the most vulnerable with Stokes and Anderson poised to return.A fairway to goIts a little over a year since Trevor Bayliss took charge of England and despite an Ashes success and nerve-wrenching run to the World T20 amongst other highlights, the Australian is honest enough to admit that England are far from the finished article - particularly in the field of shot selection. You might say the same about Bayliss golf game, but that would be harsh - especially when compared to Keyseys putting! Trevor Bayliss joins Ian Ward and Rob Key for a round of golf While chatting to Ian Ward, Bayliss revealed that in previous talks Root had pushed back at the chance to batting at three but not this time.Looking back over the years, he has big shoes to fill, not least those of Jonathan Trott who demonstrated his own golfing prowess by tearing up the Sky Sports Golf Zone during our coverage of the 145th Open Championship - landing his tee shot at the Postage Stamp par-three eighth at Royal Troon within gimme distance of the hole.Despite two rash dismissals, Roots future at three is secure and sound as Bayliss down-to-earth philosophy.Athers attracts AlsatiansNot a phrase Id ever thought Id write but one worth leading with after an amusing incident during filming for our new feature on the great Imran Khan. Find out how a large dog tickled Mike Atherton’s fancy during our Imran series During one serious piece to camera that had to be done in just one take, a rather large hound took a particular liking to our pundit and began sniffing around, Athers just about fending off the dogs unwanted attentions while completing the job, true pro that he is.Imran had stiff competition from another supreme sportsman in the feature of the Test category from AB de Villiers, who spent time over the winter giving Nasser the inside track on his stellar career including some quality insights into his batting drills.Reports that Nas soldiered on during filming despite the disturbing presence of a wildebeest remain unfounded.

Johnny ran. Johnny passed. Johnny talked. With all eyes -- well, at least the ones allowed to watch him -- on quarterback Johnny Manziel, the most hyped college player to enter the NFL in years took his first steps with the Browns, who havent promised Johnny Football anything other than a chance to win a starting job. And thats cool with him. "Im a rookie," Manziel said. "I need to earn my place. I need to earn my keep. Nothing here needs to be handed to me. I dont need to be treated based off what I did in the past, because that doesnt mean a thing at this level." The former Texas A&M quarterback, who oozes swagger every moment hes on the field, is participating in Clevelands rookie minicamp this weekend along with its other draft picks and unsigned free agents. Browns first-year coach Mike Pettine restricted access to Saturdays workout, which was held inside because of rainy weather, to local media members. Sundays practice is closed. Pettine was on the Jets coaching staff when popular quarterback Tim Tebow joined the team and wants to control "Manzielmania" as best he can. "Were well aware of the persona. Were well aware of what it brings," Pettine said. "Were excited about it. Its something that were very willing to have come here, knowing that he has a chance to make us a better football team and a better franchise." Pettine added that he knows the decision to limit access will "ruffle some feathers." "Ill apologize in advance for that, but what were tasked as a staff to do is do whats best for the football team," he said. Wearing a red No. 2 jersey, Manziel stretched with his teammates as Jay-Zs "Public Service Announcement" boomed through the speakers in the field house. With Browns owner Jimmy Haslam on the sideline, Manziel made a few handoffs and threw three short passes before the session was closed after 15 minutes. Manziel later answered questions for 10 minutes before the interview was stopped by a member of the teams media relations staff. Manziel tried to clear up one story about how he wound up with the Browns, whose long-suffering fans hope his arrival can turn around their woeful franchise. Cleveland passed on him earlier in the draft before trading up to take him at No. Per Mertesacker Jersey. 22. On Thursday, quarterbacks coach Dowell Loggains revealed during a radio interview that Manziel sent him a text message during last weeks draft, urging the team to pick him. Loggains claimed the text read: "Hurry up and draft me because I want to wreck this league together." Manziel confirmed he exchanged texts with Loggains, but said the one in which he claimed he would "wreck this league" may have been exaggerated. "I dont know if thats exactly word for word," he said. "It was something along those lines." He explained he didnt mean he was going to dominate as a rookie, just that he wanted to help the Browns win games. "Whenever it is I get a chance to play, I dont want to come in and be mediocre," he said. As for his desire to join the Browns, Manziel said that was true. "This was a place I felt comfortable with," he said. "I liked the situation here and I wanted to come here, and if they wanted to take me and were trying to get me earlier, I said, Lets do it. I dont know what kind of influence that had or what exactly that did." Pettine told Manziel that if he wants to start hes going to have to beat out Brian Hoyer, who made three starts last year before a knee injury ended his season. Manziel said he understands hes nothing special -- not yet. "I was completely OK with hearing that from everybody," he said. "I dont want to come in and have anything handed to me that I dont deserve." Manziel was humbled long before the Browns took him. "I got passed up 21 times, so that says something," he said. As for meshing with his new teammates, Manziel is fitting right in. Offensive lineman Joe Bitonio, a second-round pick, said there was a moment of awe when he walked into the locker room and realized his locker was next to Manziels. "At first I was like, Man, thats Johnny Manziel," Bitonio said. "And then once you get to know him, hes a normal guy." On the field, Manziel has already made an impression. "Amazing," running back Terrance West said. "Hes Manziel, right? Everybody knows Johnny Manziel. He makes plays. He makes big plays. Hes a great player." But right now, hes only Johnny Rookie.
