Shaheen takes four as Pakistan bowl England out for 241 in Lahore

Pakistan bowled England out for 241 in 46.4 overs in the fourth match of the ODI tri-series at Gaddafi Stadium, Lahore, on Sunday, captain Shaheen Shah Afridi taking four wickets as the hosts set out to chase 242 and keep an unbeaten record in the tournament.

Pakistan chose to bowl after winning the toss. Ben Duckett anchored the England innings with 105 off 111 balls, hitting 10 fours and two sixes, before Arafat Minhas dismissed him. Sam Curran made 42 off 52 deliveries and Gus Atkinson finished unbeaten on 36 from 28 balls with three sixes, but England lost wickets at regular intervals through the middle and lower order.

Shaheen removed Tom Banton for four, Joe Root for five, Curran for 42 and Henry Crocombe for eight. Arafat Minhas took two wickets, dismissing Duckett and Jamie Overton, while Razaullah also claimed two: his first ODI wicket came when he had Will Jacks out for 13 off 16 balls, and he then removed Liam Dawson for five. Haris Rauf dismissed wicketkeeper Jordan Cox for six off 12, and Harry Brook was run out for one.

Samaa reported that Shaheen's four-wicket haul made him the fastest Pakistani fast bowler to reach 150 ODI wickets.

England made one change to their XI, handing an ODI debut to Henry Crocombe in place of Josh Tongue, while leg-spinner Adil Rashid remained out of the side.

Pakistan beat Sri Lanka by 37 runs in the tournament opener at Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, where Salman Ali Agha made 107 off 90 balls in a total of 305 before Sri Lanka were bowled out for 268. At the same venue they then beat England by 87 runs, posting 302 for 9 and dismissing the visitors for 215 in 38.4 overs.

The PCB dedicated Sunday's match to breast cancer awareness in partnership with Pink Ribbon Pakistan. Pakistan wore pink rather than their usual green, pink stumps and awareness messages were used at the ground, and England players, match officials and commentators were invited to wear pink ribbons. The board said the initiative was intended to highlight early detection, regular screening and timely treatment, and it has partnered with the Pink Ribbon Breast Cancer Trust Hospital in Lahore, which is offering free screening for fans on October 24 and 26.

Pakistan play Sri Lanka on October 27 and Sri Lanka meet England on October 29, with the top two sides contesting the final at Gaddafi Stadium on October 31.
