Harmison had the tourists hopping around as he took 11-76 at Old Trafford to help England win by an innings.

"We showed if you produce wickets for England's fast bowlers we'll deliver.

"Hopefully we'll get cloud cover and the groundsman saw how the country got behind us because we prepared a pitch that suited us," he told BBC Sport.

"We haven't been doing that in my opinion for the early part of the season and if that comes I'm sure our bowlers can get among the Pakistani batsmen like we did at Old Trafford."

Headingley has traditionally produced results -- only two of the last 22 Tests there have been drawn -- with the weather often playing a major role.

New Zealand made 409 and England 526 in 2004 before Harmison completed a match haul of seven wickets as the Kiwis were skittled for 161, paving the way for a nine-wicket home victory.

"Overhead conditions, more than anywhere else in the country, deem what the pitch is going to be like," the Durham seamer explained.

"If it's overcast and cloudy it's one of the best places to bowl in the country but if there's sunshine it becomes one of the easiest places to bat.

"It changes unbelievably with the weather."

Harmison, who came home early from the tour of India with a shin injury, has struggled to find his rhythm this season.

And there was a scare when he pulled up with some pain in his side on day two in Manchester but he insists he is in good shape for the third instalment in the series.

"It was giving me very little trouble at the time. It was built up a bit because of what I did in the first innings and the timing of the whole thing," he added.

"If it had been the first over of the day I might have gone off for five minutes and come back on but with it being the last one it was a

journalist's dream come true!

"It was no major drama and I woke up in the morning feeling quite good.

"Since I've come back from India and the injury I've been getting better slowly and surely.

"I felt it coming together at Lord's and from ball one at Old Trafford everything clicked into place nicely."
