Rawalpindi, 20 October, 2026 (Kamran Raja): Pakistan ended their seven-year wait for an ODI victory over England with a commanding 87-run win in the tri-nation series at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium on Tuesday. Arafat Minhas delivered an outstanding all-round performance, scoring a crucial half-century before claiming six wickets to help dismiss England for 215 in 38.4 overs while chasing a target of 303 runs. Pakistan’s previous ODI victory over England came during the 2019 ICC Cricket World Cup, when they secured a 14-run win in Nottingham. The latest triumph marked a significant achievement for Pakistan as they continued their strong run in the tournament. The victory was Pakistan’s second consecutive win in the tri-nation series, following their 37-run triumph over Sri Lanka in the opening match. England, meanwhile, suffered a dramatic batting collapse after initially appearing well positioned to chase down Pakistan’s total.
