Left-armer Sidebottom, 29, was preferred to the more-established James Anderson thus ending a six-year wait to add to his sole Test appearance, in victory over Pakistan at Lord's.

It proved a welcome return to his former county headquarters for Sidebottom, who effectively replaced ex-Yorkshire colleague Matthew Hoggard from the team which drew the first Test at Lord's.

Captain Michael Vaughan returned to Test action after an 18-month gap, replacing Owais Shah at number three in the order.

Experienced West Indies batsman Shivnarine Chanderpaul was ruled out with tendinitis in his right knee so Sylvester Joseph was drafted into the middle-order.

Vaughan won the toss and despite the cloud cover overhead opted to bat first on his home ground.
