England's hopes of a Test series win against Pakistan ended in disastrous fashion as they were bowled out before lunch on day three, with Pakistan securing a nine-wicket victory.
England's innings collapse was nothing short of catastrophic. Starting the day on 156 for 6, the visitors lost four wickets in just 19 balls, with Pakistan's bowling attack ripping through the English tail.
The damage was done early in the morning, with Ben Stokes succumbing to a freak dismissal off the very first ball of the day. The visitors' situation only worsened from there, with no batsman able to stall Pakistan's relentless push for victory.
Pakistan's bowlers deserve plenty of credit for their performance. Tearing through England's lineup with venom and ferocity, Pakistan's pace attack exposed the English batting lineup's vulnerabilities.
Pakistan was set a modest target of 79 runs for the win, and they chased it down with ease. England's loss marked its second-largest defeat by wickets in Test history, making the crushing loss even harder for fans to swallow.
It was supposed to be England's Test to win, but Pakistan had other plans. The outcome marks a huge blow to England's chances of progressing in the Test rankings, while Pakistan strengthened their position in the global Test standings.
As for the visitors, the outcome is nothing short of a wake-up call. Coach Chris Silverwood will have a lot of work to do ahead of their next Test outing.
