Watch England vs Pakistan live streams as the hosts arrive in Birmingham for the 3rd Test having already wrapped up the series after dominating wins by an innings and 103 runs at Headingley and by 194 runs at Lord's. It's a welcome return to form for a revamped English team, after a tough 4-1 Ashes defeat followed by a 2-1 Test series loss against New Zealand at home.
Pakistan, on the other hand, have pressed the panic button, making a series of changes. They've let go of as many as seven players, including Mohammad Rizwan, who has been very ordinary, Imam-ul-Haq, who's surrounded by a fake injury controversy, and Salman Ali Agha, who was captain in the first Test, dropped from the second and now sent home.
In-Depth Developments & Factual Context
They've also let go of Sarfaraz Ahmed and Umar Gul after just six matches on the job, with Pakistan having won just one overseas Test in the last three years. They've replaced them with their white-ball coaches Mike Hesson and Ashley Noffke. The PCB has also launched an investigation into discipline and conduct within the Pakistan team.
Needless to say, Pakistan need to show some teeth at Edgbaston. They haven't crossed 200 runs in any of the four innings so far, with their bowling also coming under massive scrutiny for their lack of pace and variety.
England, meanwhile, will not be looking to make any changes. Their in-form bowling lineup of Ollie Robinson - player of the match in both of the first two matches - Jofra Archer, Josh Tongue and Gus Atkinson have been performing exceptionally well, and everyone in the batting lineup, barring the two openers, have got runs at some point in the series too.
