**Multan, Pakistan** – The first Test between Pakistan and England has begun in Multan, with the visitors taking a commanding lead. England currently trails by 370 runs after three days of play.

Despite recent losses, Pakistan’s Test captain, Babar Azam, continues to receive support from fellow players. Shan Masood, a key member of the team, insists there has been no lack of effort or unity within the team.
Meanwhile, the PCB chairman has questioned the talent pool within Pakistan cricket, raising concerns about the future of the team.
The first Test match continues to be a topic of discussion, with Pakistan strategizing to use England’s aggressive game plan against them. Jamal, Shaheen, and Naseem have been called up to the Pakistan XI for the first Test.
With several challenges looming, the Pakistani team will be looking to turn the tide in the upcoming matches and prove their strength and unity.
