England complete 3-0 Test series whitewash against Pakistan

England secured a 3-0 Test series whitewash against Pakistan following an eight-wicket victory in the third and final Test at Edgbaston. Despite a strong second-innings performance from Pakistan, which included a 449-run total led by Shan Masood (95), Babar Azam (76), and debutant Razaullah (81), England successfully chased a target of 130. Joe Root (62*) and Jordan Cox (59*) anchored the successful run chase.

During the match, Joe Root set a significant milestone by scoring his 69th Test half-century, surpassing Sachin Tendulkar’s record for the most half-centuries in Test cricket history.

Pakistan’s series was marked by inconsistency, though debutant Razaullah emerged as a standout performer, contributing with both bat and ball. Following the defeat, captain Babar Azam indicated that the team management and selectors would conduct a thorough review of the squad and playing eleven to address the team's performance in English conditions.
