Pitched Battle: Pakistan And England Eye Test-Deciding Surface

By AFP News October 22, 2024 • 16:11 PM View: 455

The pitch for the series-deciding Test between Pakistan and England in Rawalpindi was being scrutinised Tuesday, as the hosts tried to dry the surface to replicate last week's spin-led success. Pakistan's gamble using the same pitch for a second game running paid off in Multan, as they pulled off a 152-run series-levelling win on Friday.

Pakistan were helped to all 20 England wickets by left-arm spinner Noman Ali and right-armer Sajid Khan as England crumbled to 144 all out chasing a tough 297-run target.
