  "account": "Debutant Razaullah Khan equalled the record for the most sixes hit in a Test innings on debut, mirroring the accomplishments of established cricketers Ben Stokes and Tim Southee. The 21-year-old opened the batting for Pakistan and posted an impressive 81 off 63 balls, comprising nine sixes, on the fourth day of the Test series at Edgbaston. This stellar knock helped Pakistan recover from a challenging position and secure a lead of 129 runs. Leading the charge was Mohammad Abbas, who added 121 runs for the ninth wicket with Razaullah, reaching their century in just 43 balls. The duo's stellar partnership turned a deficit of 320 runs into a substantial lead, ultimately denying England a series sweep within three days.",
