  "account": "In a remarkable display of lower-order batting, Pakistan's debutant, Razaullah, walked in at number nine and smashed nine sixes in his Test innings, equaling the legendary Ben Stokes' record for the most sixes in a Test innings in England. This incredible feat came during Pakistan's second innings where they turned a 320-run deficit into a 129-run lead. Despite having only played eight first-class matches before his Test debut and not possessing a passport when called into the squad for the England tour, Razaullah not only dismissed England's star batter Joe Root but also took four wickets in the first innings. His fearless style of play was on full display as he smashed Gus Atkinson for three sixes in an over and Jofra Archer for consecutive sixes. It was a performance that has put Razaullah alongside the likes of cricket's greats, including Ben Stokes himself. As Pakistan head into the final day of the Test with the opportunity to salvage a series whitewash, Razaullah has given his team something to believe in.",
  "summary": "Razaullah will be the name discussed among cricket fans in Pakistan and around the world tonight. England will need just 130 runs to complete a 3-0 series whitewash, but whatever happens at Edgbaston on Saturday, the 21 year old Pakistan debutant has already made this Test one to remember. Pakistan reached 449 in their second innings to turn a 320 run first innings deficit into a 129 run lead.…",
