The visitors first shot out the home team for 286 to take a 59-run lead, with left-arm spin duo Monty Panesar and Samit Patel polishing off the lower order in style.

Later opener Nick Compton who is vying for the opener's slot with 21-year-old Joe Root to accompany captain Alastair Cook in the first Test - got back some form in the second innings by scoring an unbeaten half century.
