Zahid Mahmood took the unwanted record on Test debut.

The England team was bowled out for 657 runs on the second day of the first Test match against Pakistan at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium.

Ben Stokes won the toss and elected to bat first and from the very first over of the innings, England started aggressively and broke the 112-year-old record of scoring 500 runs in a single day of a Test match. Zach Crowley (122), Ben Duckett (107), Ollie Pope (108) and Harry Brooke (153) scored centuries and stroked the Pakistan bowlers all around the ground.
