Pakistan Defeats England to Win Test Series

England's cricket team faced a disappointing series loss to Pakistan, culminating in a nine-wicket defeat in the third Test in Rawalpindi. Captain Ben Stokes acknowledged his team's struggles, particularly against Pakistan's spin bowlers, who took 39 of the 40 wickets in the final two Tests. Stokes himself had a poor performance, scoring only three runs and being dismissed LBW after leaving a straight delivery from Noman Ali. This marked England's sixth consecutive defeat in subcontinental conditions under Stokes' leadership. Despite the failures, Stokes noted the importance of individual performances and vowed to work hard ahead of their next series against New Zealand. The series, which ended with one win for each team, showcased Pakistan's remarkable turnaround after 11 matches without a victory.
