The second Test match between Pakistan and England is underway at the Multan Cricket Stadium, and Sportstar brings you all the live updates from Day 1. The match holds significant importance for both teams, as England looks to level the series after their crushing defeat in the first Test, while Pakistan aims to secure their first home Test victory since February 2021.
England captain Ben Stokes is hoping the reused pitch from the first Test will work in their favor. The pitch, known for its flat nature, saw England score a massive 823-7 declared in the first Test. Stokes believes the similar conditions will give his team an edge against Pakistan, who have made four changes, including bringing in three spinners, in an attempt to turn the tables.
Pakistan, on the other hand, is determined to break their winless streak in home Tests. They’ve gone 11 matches without a win since their last victory against South Africa in February 2021. The pressure is on the hosts to perform and secure a much-needed victory in front of their home fans.
The match commenced on Tuesday, October 15, at 10:30 AM IST, and fans in India can catch the live streaming of the action on the FanCode app and website. The second Test promises to be an exciting encounter with both teams determined to emerge victorious.
