The visitors stuck to the same winning template even in the second Test against Pakistan. Rightly so, they won the second Test by 26 runs and won the series by 2-0, with one more game to go.

England players will breathe a sigh of relief after the game ended in favour of them on Day 5. Chasing a target of 355, Pakistan were bundled out for 328 runs. Saud Shakeel scored 94 in the run-chase but sadly, he ended up on the losing side.

On the other hand, England largely benefitted from the services of Harry Brook who scored a century including 14 fours and a six in the second innings. England must be incredibly proud of the way they played in the Test series.
