England lose to Pakistan after stunning Shadab ton

Pakistan defeated England by one wicket in their one-day international tri-series clash in Lahore following a dramatic, record-breaking final-wicket stand. After England were bowled out for 241, their bowlers reduced Pakistan to 154-9. However, Shadab Khan struck an unbeaten 113—the highest score by a number eight batsman in an ODI—and paired with number 11 Haris Rauf in an unbroken 89-run stand to secure an improbable victory.

Ben Duckett scored 105 for Harry Brook's side, while Jamie Overton took 3-43, but England could not prevent Pakistan reaching 243-9 with 17 balls remaining. A successful DRS review overturned an lbw decision against Shadab on 97 before Rauf hit the winning boundary. The result marks England's third consecutive defeat in the tournament, pushing them to the brink of elimination.
