England beat Pakistan after early scare: third men’s cricket Test, day four – as it happened

England overcame initial turbulence to secure a triumph against Pakistan on the fourth day of the third men's Test, completing an emphatic 3-0 series whitewash. The visiting side crossed the finish line courtesy of steady contributions from Joe Root and Jordan Cox, who safely guided their team home after early tension.

Meanwhile, off-pitch attention turned to Razaullah following public remarks from his representative on X. Originally lined up to feature for Cleethorpes in the Yorkshire Southern Premier League, Razaullah was instead fast-tracked into international duty when Pakistan cricket authorities handled his travel documentation and summoned him to Edgbaston, with his representative noting that franchise inquiries are already flooding in.
