Inzamam's team, who conceded a first innings lead of 144, hit back to claim nine England wickets on the final day.

"Thanks to the whole of Multan for supporting us and it's a great source of happiness to win my first Test here," the "Sultan of Multan" said.

"It was not a big total to defend but the effort the bowlers and fielders put in was really pleasing."

England began the final day requiring a further 174 runs, with Andrew Strauss and Ian Bell at the crease, but after adding 40 in calm fashion in 45 minutes, they lost three wickets for three runs in nine minutes and could not find a way back into the match.

"On the fifth day we knew it would be difficult on this pitch whatever the target was," Inzamam explained.

"We said we would put pressure whenever we got a wicket. The bowlers bowled a good line and length and thankfully we got three wickets early on which gave us the belief that we could win.

"I'm delighted with the way the team has performed on the last day. It's a young team with plenty of fighting spirit."

Leg-spinner Danish Kaneria, who captured 4-62 in the second innings, explained that it was a great contrast with the first time England batted, when his figures were 1-106 from 27 overs.

"The first innings I didn't enjoy," he said. "It was a very slow wicket and the batsmen were easily picking me.

"On the fifth day the wicket responded a little bit and I proved myself.

"Because of this win we will get a big boost because England have been very successful in beating the number one team in the world, Australia."
