Pakistan reached the close of play on day three of the third Test against England at Edgbaston with a lead of 130 runs. The team was eventually bowled out, setting up a challenging target for the hosts as the match enters its final stages.

The day was particularly significant for debutant Razaullah, whose performance provided a necessary boost to Pakistan's innings. His ability to clear the boundary proved crucial in extending Pakistan's lead during a period where the team needed to stabilize their position. His aggressive approach to batting was a focal point of the day's play, helping Pakistan recover from earlier pressure exerted by the English bowling attack.

While the match remains finely balanced, the 130-run cushion gives Pakistan a defensive advantage heading into the final two days. The pitch at Edgbaston has shown signs of wear, which may influence how both teams approach the remainder of the game. England will look to restrict Pakistan's lead further if they can secure early wickets, while Pakistan will aim to defend their total to secure a result in the series.
