    In a bizarre rarity, the England and Pakistan cricketers may continue using the first test pitch for the second match in Multan starting tomorrow

    In a bizarre rarity, the England and Pakistan cricketers may continue using the first test pitch for the second match in Multan starting tomorrow


    The same venue is seldom used consecutively in a series, let alone the same surface.

    The host board is considering the move after losing the opening run-fest by an innings and 47 runs across 353.3 overs.

    The pursuit of victory will be without former captain Babar Azam .

    He's been dropped after failing to pass 41 in his last 18 test innings, dating back to the match against the Black Caps at Rawalpindi in December 2022.
