Pakistan's ace spinner Sajid Khan wreaked havoc in England's camp, rattling them with a clinical four-wicket haul in the ongoing second Test at Multan Cricket Stadium. After outfoxing Ollie Pope, Joe Root and Ben Duckett, Sajid spun a web, bamboozling Brook with a sharp-turner. 

The incident occurred during the 44th over of England's first innings when Brook had just entered the middle following Joe Root's dismissal. Pakistan skipper Shan Masood's decision to persist with Sajid Khan worked wonders, as the off-spinner jolted the English with twin strikes of Duckett and Brook. 

After getting Duckett caught behind, Sajid Khan bowled a ripper to breach Harry Brook's defence. From over the wicket, Sajid bowled a good-length delivery, which turned sharply into Brook after pitching outside the off-stump. As the batter rocked onto his back foot, the ball went through the gap between his bat and pad, uprooting his stumps. 


Thus, Harry Brook, who struck a belligerent triple hundred in the first Test, made his way back to the dugout, scoring nine runs. His dismissal pushed the Englishmen down on the mat despite Ben Duckett's sparkling century. 

Sajid Khan Spins A Web To Ensure Pakistan's Dominance On Day 2

After Pakistan posted a respectable 366-run total in their first innings, England had a great start with the bat, as their top-order batters capitalised on the batting-friendly conditions. However, Sajid Khan triggered their collapse with a sensational bowling spell, scalping prized breakthroughs of Pope, Root, Duckett and Brook. His extraordinary outing headlined the hosts' dominance in the post-tea session, with the visitors finishing the day on 239 for six.
