His dismissal ended Pakistan's first innings at 445 in reply to England's 528 for nine declared. Pakistan, who resumed on 409 for seven, lost Shahid Afridi (17) and Umar Gul (0) both caught off Matthew Hoggard.

Yousuf reached his 200 and was then caught behind by Geraint Jones off Harmison to give the England wicketkeeper five victims in a test innings for the fourth time. Fast bowler Harmison finished with four for 94.
