‘Everyone is worried’: Pakistan languish at WTC bottom after another heavy defeat

Pakistan's Test cricket crisis reached new depths on the third day at Lord's as they suffered another heavy defeat, leaving them at the bottom of the World Test Championship table. Pacer Mohammad Abbas admitted that "everyone is worried" about the team's performances, as they have lost their last 10 away Tests. The 194-run defeat to England followed a series-opening 338-run loss at Leeds.

The veteran pacer highlighted fielding errors, particularly dropped catches, as a crucial factor in the match's outcome. Abbas also expressed disappointment over his own individual performances not translating into victories, attributing the issue to his younger teammates' inexperience in Test cricket. Pakistan now faces a vital opportunity to avert a series whitewash and accumulate valuable WTC points when they host England at Edgbaston on September 9.
