So, I'm obvs v happy to have a little prod of various ppls buttons and play the anyone but Aus card (who, me?), but on this, the funniest thing is why, with all the tech, the decisions remain so... inconsistent? LHS: #PAKvENG (out) v RHS: #AUSvSA (not-out). I dunno, quite lols.

Same, same but... different? #AUSvSA

A look back at the events of the third #PAKvENG test match plus England player ratings for that match, a brief listing of key moments in the series and a selection of my photographs.

Today was only the fourth time England have won all three matches in a three-Test series overseas. (They have won four out of five overseas Tests four times, and five out of six once - in the Ashes tour of 1978/79, when Australia were without the players signed up by Kerry Packer's WSC.)

England beat South Africa 3-0 in 1895/96
England beat New Zealand 3-0 in 1962/63
England beat Sri Lanka 3-0 in 2018/19
England beat Pakistan 3-0 in 2022/23

Excellent work #EnglandCricket. Series whitewash in Pakistan, which no country has done before. So good to see the team playing like they're actually enjoying themselves and playing to get a result, rather than grinding out a draw.

Yeh but it's no biscuit trophy, is it? #PAKvENG

Didn't get up for the #cricket this morning - but as you can see still not a lie in - partly because it was clear what the result would be. However to whitewash Pakistan is a fantastic result. #PakvEng

Great result for England's #cricket team. And great to have #testmatch cricket between the two sides back in Pakistan. #PAKvENG 🏏❤️

ENGLAND WIN!! 🏏
What a turn round by England this year!
Successful, entertaining cricket, Brendon McCullum & Ben Stokes have wrought a miracle.
Kudos to all concerned, have a great Christmas & a successful 2023!
Thanks for having us, Pakistan 😁 🇵🇰 👏🏼

Absolutely nuts to think that England's men started this calendar year having already lost the Ashes & hustling to avoid a whitewash, & ends w/ its Test captain having won 9/10 Tests & trying to break the record (held by his coach) for no. of 6s in Test cricket. #PAKvENG

Morning people!
I’m listening to the closing stages of the Test match v Pakistan, which England are almost certain to win, and Wordle went well.
Hope you have a good day, all. 😊
