Pakistan's Batting Woes Persist in Third Test Against England at Edgbaston
Pakistan's batting struggles continued in the third Test at Edgbaston, where they were dismissed for 133 runs in 33.5 overs. The team has failed to reach 200 runs in any innings this series, with their top five batsmen often dismissed cheaply, including a notably low aggregate of 24 for five wickets.

Key players like Babar Azam and Abdullah Shafique have underperformed against England's pace attack, contributing to Pakistan's ongoing difficulties.
