England started Day 4 at 36/2 as both openers Zack Crawley (3) and Ben Duckett (0) departed cheaply at the end of third day's play. Ollie Pope (22) departed quickly, getting caught and bowl by Noman, after adding just one more run to the scoreboard, while Joe Root (18) also failed to hold on, getting lbw off Noman. Harry Brook was the next to fall with the score at 78, identical to how Root lost his wicket.
Captain Ben Stokes displayed some resistance, scoring 37 runs off 36 balls, including four fours. But the left-handed batter eventually fell to Noman, who also accounted for the wickets of Jamie Smith (6), Brydon Carse (6), Jakc Leach (1) and Shoaib Bashir (0). Matthew Potts (9) remained not out.
After suffering a humiliating innings defeat in the first Test, Pakistan desperately needed a morale boosting victory. Pakistan's spin duo of Sajid and Noman accounted for all 20 wickets. Sajid ended with nine wickets to his name, while Noman picked up 11 in the match.
