Islamabad, Oct 27: Memes Explode as Pakistan Falls to England in Test Series
Memes abound on social media following England’s nine-wicket loss to Pakistan in the third Test match in Rawalpindi.
The Englishmen lost the series with a score of 2-1 after suffering a miserable nine-wicket defeat to Pakistan in the third Test match on Saturday.
The internet was inundated with memes shortly after the “Bazball” was defeated.
After Pakistan decided to make four changes after the first Test crushing, the beleaguered hosts found new hope in the spin combo of Sajid Khan and Noman Ali, who took the place of Shaheen Shah Afridi and Naseem Shah.
The spin combo took 39 of 40 England wickets in the last two Test matches, and their well-timed and practical appearances further demolished the visitors.
Pakistan defeated South Africa 2-0 to win their first home Test series since February 2021.
‘Disappointing’
Ben Stokes responded to the series loss by saying that losing games for England is painful and upsetting before emphasizing the importance of consistency.
“Losing games for England hurts so it’s disappointing,” said Ben Stokes.
“We need to do things for longer. As I said, we did good things in very small amounts of times at certain points throughout the second game and this game. But when you don’t sustain that, you know you’re always going to start falling away,” Ben Stokes added.
