**Multan, Pakistan:** The second Test between Pakistan and England got off to a shaky start for the hosts as England’s bowlers struck early on Day 1 at the Multan Cricket Stadium.
Pakistan, winning the toss and electing to bat, found themselves struggling to build a strong foundation. Abdullah Shafique (7) and Saim Ayub (8) were the first to fall, both victims of Jack Leach’s cunning bowling.
Leach, who finished the first innings with impressive figures of 2/20, provided England with crucial early breakthroughs, leaving Pakistan at 8/2.
Despite a promising start, Pakistan’s batting order struggled to find their rhythm against the English bowlers. Kamran Ghulam, who hit the first six of the match, eventually fell for 10 runs.
The match is still in its early stages, with Pakistan looking to regroup and build a competitive score. Fans are eagerly waiting to see if they can overcome England’s early dominance.
