Series Preview

England has taken a 2-0 lead in the three-match Test series against Pakistan. With the final Test at Edgbaston scheduled to begin on September 9, England looks primed for a clean sweep, while Pakistan is left scrambling to pick up the pieces of a highly uninspired tour.

The fallout from the Lord’s defeat has triggered chaos within Pakistan’s cricket infrastructure, the Pakistan Cricket Board summarily sacked head coach Sarfaraz Ahmed and bowling coach Umar Gul, replacing them immediately with Mike Hesson and Ashley Noffke.

The management did not stop at the staff; they axed seven underperforming squad members on the spot, flying in fresh faces including Saim Ayub, Abdullah Fazal, Arafat Minhas, Saad Baig, Mohammad Imran Jnr, Razaullah, and Randhawa.

This reactive decision-making has drawn heavy criticism from global cricket pundits, who point out that such structural instability ruins player confidence and exposes deep-rooted governance flaws.
