MULTAN – Sajid Khan’s bowling brilliance leads beleaguered Pakistan to dominance over England in Multan Test.
In a stunning display of spin bowling, Khan shattered England’s batting order on Day 3 of the second Test, leading to their collapse at 291, 75 runs behind Pakistan’s first-innings total of 366. His fierce spell earned him 7 wickets for 111 runs, while teammate Noman Ali contributed with 3 wickets, wrapping up England’s innings in just 67.2 overs.
English batsmen struggled significantly against the spin, particularly in the latter stages of their innings, losing their final four wickets for just 43 runs. Jack Leach provided some resistance with a quick 25 runs, but it was not enough to halt the team’s downward spiral.
Khan’s relentless spell included key dismissals, with the final wicket being Shoaib Bashir for 9 runs.
As Pakistan heads into their second innings with a 75-run lead, they appear well-positioned to capitalize on their advantage and potentially take control of the series. With one wicket remaining for England, the pressure is firmly on the visitors as they look to recover from this devastating setback.
Sajid Khan’s remarkable performance has solidified his place as a key player in Pakistan’s bowling attack, setting the stage for an exciting conclusion to the match.
