Pakistan sent England crashing to 241 all out in the fourth ODI of the tri-nation series at Lahore's Gaddafi Stadium on Sunday, October 25, 2026. The win leaves Pakistan needing 242 runs to secure the match and move nearer to a final berth.
England's Ben Duckett anchored the innings with 105 runs from 104 balls, rescuing his side after a shaky start. Shaheen Shah Afridi, Pakistan's captain, spearheaded the bowling, claiming four wickets for 36 runs.
England slumped to three wickets for 19 runs early on as Shaheen removed Tom Banton and Joe Root, and Harry Brook was run out for a single. Jordan Cox also fell quickly, adding pressure on the visitors.
Sam Curran contributed 42 runs and partnered with Duckett for a 91-run stand that steadied England's chase. After Curran's wicket fell, Pakistan kept the pressure, limiting further growth of the total.
Debutant Razaullah picked up two wickets, and Arafat Minhas also took two. Gus Atkinson remained unbeaten on 36, seeing England reach 241 before the innings closed after 46.4 overs.
Pakistan's pursuit will decide if the hosts lock in a place in the tri-nation series final.
