Pakistan, having been on a tour of a England since late June, won only one match — their last match of the tour, the 5-run win in the 3rd T20I vs England earlier this week.

They lost the first match of the Test series and managed to draw the next two with help from rain and bad light. Even though some performances stood out — like Mohammad Rizwan’s wicketkeeping and Azhar Ali’s match-saving century in the 3rd Test — England were the better team through the series. They went down in the T20I series which followed, but salvaged the series with the win in the last match.
