LONDON, 30 August 2026 (News Desk): England’s pace attack made early inroads as Pakistan found themselves in deep trouble during their daunting chase of 389 runs on day four of the second Test at Lord’s Cricket Ground on Sunday. Pakistan were 53 for three in 17 overs at lunch, with Saud Shakeel unbeaten on 23 off 36 balls, including four boundaries, while Shan Masood was not out on 15 after striking two fours. Pakistan suffered a disastrous start to their chase, losing Azan Awais for four in the fourth over. Abdullah Shafique followed shortly afterwards, being bowled for a duck to leave Pakistan struggling at 7 for two. Babar Azam also failed to provide stability, falling to Jofra Archer. The England pacer produced a fierce bouncer that put the Pakistan batter in an awkward position, with the resulting top edge safely taken at slip.Babar’s dismissal left Pakistan reeling at 14 for three, but Saud Shakeel and Shan Masood steadied the innings with an unbeaten half-century partnership before the lunch interval. Earlier, Pakistan pacer Mohammad Abbas claimed a five-wicket haul as England set Pakistan a challenging target of 389 runs to level the Test series. Pakistan now face a difficult task in the remaining sessions as England continue to press for victory.
