In a thrilling display of cricketing brilliance, England shattered record after record to outshine Pakistan in Multan, claiming a staggering innings-and-47-run victory within the first session of Day 5. This match was a roller-coaster ride that saw records tumble like dominoes, leaving fans on the edge of their seats. England now leads the three-match series 1-0 as Pakistan grapples with a history-defining defeat.

Pakistan’s First Innings Effort Proves Insufficient

Pakistan’s first innings of 556 runs, a mountain of runs on a batter-friendly track, seemed a massive total. Yet, England responded with a monumental 823/7, fuelled by Harry Brook’s stunning triple century and Joe Root’s double ton, taking the wind out of Pakistan's sails.

Despite posting one of the highest totals in a losing cause, Pakistan couldn’t muster a comeback, collapsing to 220 in their second innings.
