"Bazball was born in Pakistan and now it is dying in Pakistan"- Top 10 funny memes after Day 1 of 3rd PAK vs ENG 2024 Test

The third and final Test match between Pakistan and England commenced on Thursday (October 24) at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium in Rawalpindi. The 3-match series is currently level at 1-1.

English captain Ben Stokes won the toss and opted to bat first in the series decider. Host spinners Sajid Khan (6/128) and Noman Ali (3/88) continued from where they left in the previous Test and scalped nine wickets between them.

They helped bundle out the visiting team for 267 in 68.2 overs. Jamie Smith (89) and Ben Duckett (52) hit fine half-centuries for England in the batting department on a dry surface, which aided spinners from the outset.

Pakistan reached 73/3 in 23 overs before stumps on Day 1, with Shan Masood (16*) and Saud Shakeel (16*) holding the fort. Jack Leach, Gus Atkinson, and Shoaib Bashir scalped a wicket apiece for England with the ball.

Fans enjoyed the engaging action on Day 1 of the third Test between England and Pakistan. They expressed their reactions by sharing memes on Instagram and X (formerly known as Twitter).

"Playing on all kinds of surfaces has helped me"- Sajid Khan after his 6-wicket haul in the first innings of 3rd PAK vs ENG 2024 Test

After stumps on Day 1, Sajid Khan reflected on his brilliant bowling performance and said:

"I have been playing domestic cricket for the last 8-9 years and playing on all kinds of surfaces has helped me. This Rawalpindi track is a new one, haven't seen it turn much."

He added:

"Enjoyed picking up Root's wicket. Joe Root is one of the best players and we have planned for him to get him early. Credit to Jamie Smith, he played extremely well with the lower order.
