The Unwelcome Record: Pakistan's Baffling Collapse at Headingley Pakistan's recent Test match defeat to England has left cricket enthusiasts bewildered not just by the crushing margin of their loss but also by an unwanted record set during the match.
For the seventh time in their history, Pakistan lost their opening wicket without scoring a single run in both innings of the same match. This feat is remarkable considering it was achieved in just two innings.
The statistics behind this record are astonishing. In 472 Tests played by Pakistan, this has occurred roughly once every 68 matches.
