England captain Ben Stokes had no complaints following the 2-1 series defeat to Pakistan, who expertly utilized engineered spin-friendly conditions.

The series, concluding at the Rawalpindi Cricket Stadium, marked Pakistan's first home series win since 2021, as the hosts capitalized on cleverly curated pitches to tilt the odds in their favor.
