Four-wicket Robinson stars as Pakistan collapse in second Test
LONDON: Ollie Robinson took a sensational 4-11 in 13 overs as Pakistan collapsed to 110 all out in the second Test against England at Lord’s on Friday.
Ollie Robinson delivered a remarkable performance, taking 4-11 in 13 overs to help Pakistan collapse to 110 all out in the second Test against England. However, England's troubles continued the following day, as they fell to 13-2 in their second innings on a pitch that still provided significant seam movement. Despite the early close due to bad light, England managed to recover to 81-3, leading the series 2-0.
Jofra Archer and Josh Tongue were instrumental in England's innings, with Archer contributing 3-26 and Tongue scoring a Test-best 30 not out. Pakistan's top scorer, Azan Awais, managed 46 runs before being dropped on eight in the slips by Harry Brook. Saud Shakeel contributed 16 runs, while opener Imam-ul-Haq was unable to bat due to a calf injury sustained during fielding the previous day.
Despite a brief resistance from Gus Atkinson and Josh Tongue, Pakistan's innings ended at 16-2. England's Joe Root, who had previously been leg before, added another wicket when he dismissed Archer's off-stump. In the end, England dominated the match, maintaining a comfortable lead over Pakistan in the three-match series.
