It is known that the England cricket team has started the Pakistan tour with a spectacular victory. The first match of the three-Test series was played at Multan Stadium, where England registered a big victory by defeating Pakistan by an innings and 47 runs. This defeat is being considered as one of the most shameful defeats in the history of Pakistan's cricket. Besides, a disappointing record has also been added to Pakistan's name in Test cricket, which had not been achieved by any team in the 147 years of Test history.

Pakistan team had made a strong start by scoring 556 runs in its first innings. A draw was expected for the first three and a half days of the match, but in the last session of the fourth day, the game took an unbelievable turn and Pakistan had to suffer a crushing defeat. This is the first time in the history of Test cricket that a team has scored more than 500 runs in its first innings and yet lost the match.
