On the opening day of the first Test between England and Pakistan, Ollie Robinson made a stunning early impact by dismissing Azan Awais for a golden duck off the first ball bowled at Headingley. The young opener, faced with a sharp delivery from Robbo, was caught lbw as the ball moved back into him. Awais, reviewing the decision, was left with no recourse as the review was lost, marking only the second time in Test history that a team had lost a wicket off the first delivery.
The previous instance occurred in 1983 when Mohsin Khan was bowled by Kapil Dev. This remarkable feat establishes Robinson as one of the rare four bowlers to achieve such a milestone in England, joining Maurice Tate in 1926, Geoff Arnold in 1974, and Ryan Sidebottom in 2007. England's promising start, spearheaded by Robinson's performance, left Pakistan reeling before they even had the chance to respond.
