England vs Pakistan 3rd Test match day 4 2026 full highlights
Transcript
00:02Oh, he's got in first ball. What a start for Pakistan. What a start for Mohammed Abbas. Benduk it must
00:10go. England have lost one first ball.
00:21A brilliant afternoon, a brilliant evening yesterday.
00:29Bit of hesitation. Cox gets home.
00:34Oh, out. Surely out. Must be out. Yes, Chris Gaffney.
00:39And I can't think that Emilio Gay is going to send this upstairs. That looked absolutely stone dead.
00:45It's getting rid of both England's owners for a duck. Duck it first ball. Gay fourth ball. England two for
00:52two.
00:56Original decision is out. Pitching outside off. Chris, you can stay with the decision of out. Stand by.
01:05Bad review from Emilio Gay.
01:10That is a very good start as well. There's just a bit of swing there.
01:18Wedged and through the slip cord. And this is a good start from Raza Ulla who's finding some swing.
01:24Yeah, from that slingy action.
01:28It was the nip backer that did Root in the first innings. This one was the out swinger.
01:34Luckily for Root, it went quickly, but in that gap.
01:39Good sign though, some swing. Pakistan got to keep this ball up.
01:47More runs for Root in that favoured area of his.
01:51Putting the ball hard into the ground and bouncing over the slip cordon.
01:56So he's up and running. And England are 11 for two.
02:24So he's up and running. And England are 11 for two.
02:26Joe Root just because it's such a productive area for him.
02:30It's not an easy one when you're trying to defend 130.
02:33But you have to balance both attack and the need to get wickets.
02:37But also an awareness that you haven't got many runs to play with as well.
02:54This thing's for him to work on, isn't it?
03:00That was just over. Backward point.
03:04Zano Ace is hovering there.
03:07He leapt, but couldn't leap high enough.
03:09Cox finishes the over with a boundary.
03:12England 22 for two.
03:16He does go for boundaries.
03:18We've seen that on his debut.
03:22Extra pace means there are...
03:30Well done, well done.
03:31Well done, Chapman.
03:32Chapman.
03:35Yeah.
03:58Nicely done as the sixth over comes to an end in a sense that England are just weathering that early
04:04storm.
04:04And they're 26 for two.
04:09Pick up two here as well.
04:19Time beautifully behind square.
04:21That is vintage Root.
04:23That is vintage Root.
04:29I have to have to be quick.
04:35But I have made it comfortably enough in the end.
04:42Not quite.
04:44I think it's just going down
04:51Fine shot
04:53Just a little step out of his crease there Joe Root
04:57Turned it into a half volley
04:59Shahan Masood
05:01I think has done good work to keep it to three
05:13No surprise he gets through a few
05:19And wouldn't you just know it
05:20The very next delivery will find the boundary
05:25And England are rolling towards victory again
05:2840 for two
05:34The greatest doesn't really allow
05:37For you to sneak back in again
05:43Lovely punch off the back foot
05:47And we'll find the boundary this time
05:49From the bat of Jordan Cox
05:55I'm very elegant through that offside
05:58Stan Stalin punches it off the back foot
06:04Shot
06:05That is emphatic from Root
06:08Hand in Joe Root
06:10Spanks one to the boundary
06:13And they will have to re-bowl that
06:15Mohamed Ali now for the 18th time
06:17In this test series
06:21That is exquisite
06:25Confirmation from the crowd as well
06:43It's worth a go with a short ball at Jordan Cox
06:45I don't actually feel but
06:47Oh
06:48Oh
06:48Get get get get
06:49Going
06:49Get get get
06:50Get get get
06:51Get get get
07:02Get
07:02from Joe Root so that wicked off a no ball was edged and in the gap look at
07:12Muhammad Abbas he is absolutely furious nobody moved but mannequins in the slip
07:23defending a low target you need to take every opportunity and that's Joe Root
07:29second life and you just cannot afford to do that really poor
07:43just a single despite the tumbling fielding that's the area they've been
07:51attacking Root he'll scamper up the other end
08:00lovely high-class shot from Jordan Cox who really has looked the part
08:05all will win
08:10oh that's flown through that has given the young wicket keeper no chance given as wides
08:22play the blame game if I wasn't getting wickets change the boots
08:31off the stumps but safely enough off the bats 70 for 71 for two
08:40wonderful shot that there is protection down in front of the hollies it will bring
08:44Jordan Cox at a pleasing two
08:50wonderful shot that was hit with real power and authority and he's looked the part Jordan
08:56Cox he really has with the bat
09:04wild throw but a very well taken single 52 to win
09:13England ticking over nicely now
09:1980 for two England need 50
09:25hang up we're not done yet they don't need 50 they need less than that wait for the
09:30umpire signal for
09:40this hunting and route we've been going on the on this board quite a lot with gamble
09:49Trent bridge
09:55benedict shouts out he hasn't even got a thousand there

10:03you can see it when England struggle to take wickets and break a partnership they took the
10:10ball to dan lawrence and
10:15clipped fine
10:16Jordan Cox is having a good test match
10:22cut beautifully
10:25and another milestone for route 69

10:51in this short run chase
10:53moment of cam

11:46with the car and ball or the flick out of the front of the hand a little bit of
11:51turn but little paddle sweep and that will hurry to the boundary box moves to
12:0144 it's a hundred and six for two
