Pakistan Collapses to 133 All Out on Day 1 of Third Test Against England
In the third and final Test at Edgbaston, Pakistan suffered a significant batting collapse, reaching 133 all out on Day 1 against England. Despite fielding a largely new team, Pakistan struggled against England's seam attack, with key players including captain Babar Azam dismissed early. England's bowlers, notably Josh Tongue, Jofra Archer, and Ollie Robinson, took multiple wickets quickly. Pakistan's top five all scored single-digit runs, marking a historic low in England Test cricket. Saud Shakeel was the main resistance with 43 runs, while Pakistan's overall batting woes continued amid off-field challenges.
