Pakistan’s bowling effort was led by spinner Ali Usman, who claimed five wickets for 95 runs. Fast bowler Khurram added three scalps, while Mohammad Ali and Mohammad Abbas each picked up one wicket. In response, England’s seam attack delivered a historic performance: Ollie Robinson and Josh Tong each ripped through the Pakistani line‑up, taking five wickets apiece. This marked the first occasion since 2006 that two English bowlers have achieved five‑wicket hauls in the same innings, a feat previously recorded by Steve Harmison and Monty Panesar.
