ENG vs PAK: England's Saqib Mahmood Strikes As Pakistan Slump To 141 All Out In 1st ODI

By IANS News July 09, 2021 • 13:38 PM View: 2677

Saqib Mahmood marked his return to England duty with a one-day international best of 4-42 as the hosts put their Covid-19 problems behind them to dismiss Pakistan for a meagre 141 in Thursday's series opener in Cardiff.

The 24-year-old Lancashire fast bowler, in just his fifth match at this level and first in nearly a year, took two wickets in three balls in the first to leave Pakistan reeling after England stand-in captain Ben Stokes won the toss.
