England's tour of Pakistan ended in humiliating fashion as the hosts thrashed them by nine wickets in the third and final Test match in Karachi. The match lasted a mere three days, with Pakistan requiring just seven overs on day three to seal their comprehensive victory.
The England team, which had high hopes of finishing the series on a high, was left reeling as Pakistan's spinners took control of the match from the very beginning. England's batting lineup, which had shown promise in the previous matches, crumbled against the Pakistani spin attack, putting up a dismal showing.
The Pakistani bowlers, led by their skipper who took four wickets in the second innings, were in top form as they stifled the English batsmen for runs. England's top order was unable to withstand the pressure, and the team found themselves facing an uphill task of trying to survive on a wicket that was rapidly deteriorating.
After Pakistan enforced the follow-on, England's batting lineup was expected to show some resilience. However, the Pakistani bowlers were having none of it as they continued to wreak havoc on the English top order. England's resistance was eventually broken as wickets began to fall in quick succession.
The final blow came just before lunch on day three when the last English wicket fell, leaving Pakistan with a target of just 55 runs to seal their win. The Pakistani batsmen had no issues in chasing down the target, losing just one wicket in the process.
The nine-wicket victory marked a triumphant end to Pakistan's Test series against England, who will be left ruing their missed opportunities throughout the series. As for Pakistan, the victory will undoubtedly serve as a major confidence boost as they prepare for their upcoming international commitments.
