Kamran Ghulam's debut century provides a crucial boost for Pakistan against England In the second Test match on day one, Pakistan finished at 259 for five, with debutant Kamran Ghulam shining brightly amidst early struggles. His impressive performance came at a time when the team was in a precarious position, having lost two wickets for just 19 runs. Ghulam's innings was a testament to his composure and skill, as he navigated the challenging situation to score 118 runs before being dismissed late in the day. Ghulam's selection for the Test came after a stellar domestic season last winter, coupled with strong performances in the recent one-day President’s Cup. He also had a successful stint playing for Hoylandswaine in the Huddersfield League, where he averaged an astonishing 244. With the former captain Babar Azam struggling for form, Ghulam had big shoes to fill, but he showed no signs of nerves as he took to the crease. His initial 15 deliveries yielded four singles, showcasing his solid defensive technique, before he confidently struck his 16th ball for six. Ghulam's ability to settle into his innings and build a substantial score was exactly what Pakistan needed on a day that started with uncertainty.
