Gary Ballance is happy to be back in Englands Test team ahead of the series against Pakistan, starting at Lords on Thursday, live on Sky Sports. The Yorkshire middle-order batsman admitted to being surprised at the call-up, but is delighted to get another opportunity at Test level.So far this season, Ballance has hit 585 runs at an average of 36.56 in first-class cricket, including two centuries. The 26-year-old told Sky Sports News HQ: Its just great to be back. Coming to Lords is a special place and in the past its been good for me.I was a little bit surprised to get the call. I didnt even know they were selecting a team. Was having a normal day, when I got a phone call and it was great to get good news. Stuart Broad says hes pleased to see Gary Ballance recalled to the England squad for their first Test against Pakistan Ballance has made four centuries during his Test career, two of which have come at Lords.However, Sky pundit Dominic Cork believes he may need to change his positioning and stance at the crease.The problem has been his position when hes batting - his crease position, Cork told Sky Sports News HQ.Against Australia last year, he was deep in the crease, near enough on top of the stumps. As a bowler, that tells you to pitch it up. He has changed that, but I still think hes got some work to do.Hes done this because he tries to give himself more time, so instead of being on the crease line he goes back. But I think hes got to be positive, get over the top of the ball, and not be pushing back. Get a Sky Sports Pass Dont miss the next Test.

KAPOLEI, Hawaii -- Michelle Wie rallied from four strokes back entering the day to shoot a 5-under 67 on Saturday and win the LPGA LOTTE Championship. The 24-year-old American finished at 14-under 274 after coming into the final round trailing third-round leader Angela Stanford by four shots after Fridays play. It was Wies third career victory on the LPGA Tour, and first since taking the CN Canadian Womens Open in 2010 -- snapping a 79-event winless drought. And, Wie did it at home. "Im just having fun out there," said Wie, who grew up in Honolulu. "I was out there and nervous. Every time I felt nervous out there, I was looking around, I felt there was no place Id rather be." Stanford had her worst round of the tournament, shooting a 1-over 73 that put her at 12-under 276 and two shots behind Wie. Top-ranked Inbee Park finished third with an 11-under 277. "Today, just didnt make the putts that Ive been making," Stanford said. "I wasnt hitting it great today. Just misclubbed a couple of times. Just didnt make good decisions." Wie came to LOTTE and her home state of Hawaii coming off a runner-up finish two weeks ago in the Kraft Nabisco Championship when she closed with a 71 for her best position of the season. "The highlight of this week was to come back home," Wie said. "There wasnt just one moment. From the first tee shot that I made to the last putt, the aloha that I felt from everyone was unbelievable." Stanford, the leader after the second and third rounds at breezy Ko Olina, came out strong with a birdie on the par-4 third hole to set herself up at 14-under early in the day.dddddddddddd. A bogey for Stanford and a birdie for Wie on the par-4 sixth closed the gap to within a stroke. The par-3 eighth brought Stanford, Wie and South Koreas Hyo Joo Kim to tie at 12 under. A birdie for Wie on the par-3 12th gave her the outright lead, and she gave a small triumphant fist pump to the crowd. "I really think a lot of times, they willed the ball in," Wie said of the fans. "I give a lot of credit to them this week." Another birdie on the par-5 13th put Wie two strokes ahead of two-day leader Stanford and three strokes ahead of Kim. Stanford and Kim were unable to close that gap as Wie won for the first time on American soil. "Shes been playing great," Stanford said. "Shes having a great year, so it was bound to happen. I just happened to be the one that caught the buzz saw." Trade winds continued to challenge golfers all day, gusting upward of 20 mph, according to the National Weather Service. "Well, my caddy isnt one for pep talks, but he gave a good one today," Wie said. "He said, Its windy out there today, but play your game, and thats really what I did. I didnt try to force anything. I had a number in my head that I thought I needed to shoot, and I got it. Kim came in fourth with 1-under 71 for 10-under 278 overall. ' ' '
