  "summary": "England dominated the opening day of the third and final Test against Pakistan at Edgbaston. They bowled Pakistan out for 133 and then took control with the bat, closing the day on 156-4, which gave them a lead of 23 at stumps, according to BBC Sport.\n\nEngland captain Joe Root was dismissed for a low score, caught lbw by Pakistan debutant Razaullah. This was Root's eighth LBW dismissal of the season, a record for most by any player in a single Test season, as reported by Yahoo Sports.\n\nThe England team now leads by 23 runs at the end of the first day.",
