Saim Ayub, Azan Awais, Abdullah Shafique, Shan Masood and Babar Azam failed to provide any resistance as Pakistan slipped to 48/5 inside 15 overs. The collapse created an unwanted piece of Test history, as Pakistan became the first team to have their top five batters dismissed for single-figure scores in the first innings of a Test match in England.
Babar Azam's dismissal completed the unwanted sequence. The Pakistan captain scored seven from 18 balls before Josh Tongue bowled him with a delivery that moved back into him and hit the top of off stump.
