The ongoing 1st Test match between Pakistan and England saw some crazy events that blew the minds of the audience. First, Pakistan scored 556 runs in the first innings, including three batters' century. After that, when England came into bat, Naseem Shah sent the English skipper Ollie Pope back to the pavilion on a duck. However, this wasn't the best part; Pope's way of dismissal was.
In the second over of the match, Shah came and bowled a back-of-a-length delivery around off, where Pope swung the bat and thought of sending it to the boundary over the batter's head. However, Aamer Jamal took a one-handed stunner to dismiss the captain on a duck. It was definitely not something England wanted, as the score was extremely high. Moreover, this Test series is important for England to stay in the WTC finals race.
In 10 overs, England have scored 43 runs at the loss of one wicket. Zak Crawley and Joe Root are on the crease, trying to save England's pride from losing the game against Pakistan. Both are excellent batters, and two centuries from them will change the game's course.
Skipper Shan Masood slams century in 1st innings against England
Pakistan's skipper Shan Masood was in a different form altogether as he slammed a century against England in the 1st innings of the first Test match. After a lot of criticism, he finally rose to the occasion and scored 151 runs off 177 balls including 13 boundaries and two sixes. After him, Abdullah Shafique and Agha Salman also scored two beautiful tons helping Pakistan reach a massive total.
Jack Leach was England's hero as he claimed three wickets and conceded 160 runs in 40 overs. Apart from him, Gus Atkinson and Brydon Carse took two wickets each. Now, England will have to bat and reach the target which will help them draw the innings because reaching a result will be difficult from here on.
