Alastair Cook is urging his England team to vent the frustrations of Lord's by cutting out their costly naivety against Yasir Shah in time for the second Investec Test.

England have precious little time to get their house in order in Manchester next week, after Yasir's 10-wicket match haul consigned them to a 75-run defeat in the first Test of four.

Cook acknowledged both poor shot selection and execution among the wickets lost to the leg-spinner - and vowed England will put them right.

Yasir's 10 for 141 - Pakistan's all-time best figures at the home of cricket - included four for 69 in England's second-innings 207 all out late on day four.

Their captain traced the problems back to conceding a lead of 67 first time round, as England failed to bat anywhere near as well as they bowled - especially Chris Woakes, whose match haul of 11 for 102 put even Yasir in the shade.

"I think we were 100 runs light in the first innings," said Cook.

"I just think we had a few poor shot selections to a few certain types of balls.

"We played some naive shots at times to certain angles. That's frustrating."

The key for England will be how they react to going 1-0 down.

"It's disappointing, and the beauty of a four-Test series is that you've got chances to come back - and that's exactly what we'll aim to do," said Cook.

"We've got to talk about it. But you can talk all you want - we've got to deliver."

Their all-time leading wicket-taker James Anderson and key all-rounder Ben Stokes are both expected back, having been fit enough after respective shoulder and knee injuries to play for Lancashire and Durham this week.

Their returns are set to be confirmed when the selectors announce the second-Test squad on Monday.

In the meantime, Cook concedes it is England's batsmen with issues to address.

"You don't mind getting bowled out sometimes, and you can play some bad shots - but we played too many bad shots," he said.

"It's never nice losing at Lord's. We'll use that as motivation and get better.

"We lost to Australia here [last summer] far more heavily - and we certainly bounced back very well in the next few games."

Pakistan captain Misbah-ul-Haq is hoping Mohammad Amir's rehabilitation - following his Test comeback from his five-year ban for spot-fixing - can begin in earnest in the remainder of the series.

Amir finished the match at the scene of his 2010 crime by bowling number 11 Jake Ball, and Misbah said: "That was a special moment for him.

"That could be the start of a new life.

"I hope he'll perform like that, and prove it to everybody ... just be really a good man, a good cricketer and good human being now.

"He's so lucky he got another chance."
