A 21-year-old debutant named Razaullah Khan turned a lopsided Edgbaston Test on its head, smashing 81 off 63 balls with nine sixes and four fours before being stumped in the day's final over.

The innings tied Ben Stokes's record for most sixes in a Test innings in England and leaves England needing 130 runs on the fourth day to complete a 3-0 series sweep.

Pakistan, described as being at its lowest ebb before the innings, now has at least a puncher's chance of avoiding the whitewash.
