The England cricket team kickstarted their first-ever Test series in Pakistan after 17 years with a blockbuster note as they amassed 506 runs for the loss of four wickets on the opening day of the 1st Test match at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium. After winning the toss, England got off to a breathtaking start. England openers Zak Crawley and Ben Duckett gave a flying start to their side as they registered some stunning centuries as the tourists took the driver’s seat in the first session only.
Both the swashbuckling openers started smashing the Pakistan bowlers to all the corners of the ground from the first ball. The England cricket team touched the 100-run mark in 13.5 overs of their innings. After their dismissal, the other England batsmen too followed suit, as the Three Lions compiled a massive target of 506/4 on the board.
With this sensational performance, England was able to break the 112-year-old world record of the Australian cricket team for the highest-ever runs compiled on the first day of a Test Match in history.
Meanwhile, social media has been buzzing with reactions from fans from around the world, who are trolling the Pakistan bowlers and Pakistan Cricket Board for their pitch. Even experts and cricketers are also joining the bandwagon and are criticizing the performance of the Pakistan cricket team.
Among many, former commentator Bazid Khan too seemed disturbed by his side’s poor performance. He took to his social media and expressed his disappointment with a sarcastic Tweet. He mentioned that this score wouldn’t have been achieved on a game on PlayStation. He wrote: ‘Itna to play station par bhi nahi hota #PAKvENG,’
