Steven Finn bowled himself into contention for England's first Test with Pakistan as he took 4-16 in the final warm-up match with Pakistan A. 

Finn enjoyed a valuable day in the field in with a spell of controlled, aggressive bowling that saw Pakistan A finish the day 192-12.

All of Alastair Cook's bowlers performed admirably in the heat, but it was Finn who shone brightest as he regularly troubled the Pakistan A batsmen from the outset.

Having seen a catch drop short and a LBW turned down, Finn finally got his reward in the ninth over as Khurram Manzoor (11) edged to Jonny Bairstow.

Ali Asad (0), Iftikhar Ahmed (10) and Usman Salahuddin (6) quickly followed, the last two falling in the first over after lunch as Finn returned with a bang.

Finn continued to bowl with superb discipline throughout the day as the Pakistan A batsmen struggled to get him away, while around him the rest of England's attack began to strike.

Spin trio Adil Rashid (3-53), Samit Patel (2-31) and Moeen Ali (1-44) all contributed, while Liam Plunkett (2-24) got in on the act late on as he bowled Ali Asad for his second duck of the day before removing Ehsan Adil (0) with the final delivery.

Only Adnan Akmal (74 not out) and Sami Aslam (43) provided any resistance to England's bowling unit with patient innings', Akmal enjoying some luck in between his well-structured display.
