Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) makes a major mid-series change after a heavy defeat to England in the second Test at Lord’s, where Pakistan lose by 194 runs. Multiple reports say the PCB releases seven players and replaces members of the coaching staff following the loss.
The overhaul is described as a response to the team’s performance in the ongoing Test series. While the outlets agree on the core actions—player releases and coaching changes—details such as which specific players and staff are affected are not fully consistent or fully specified in the provided text. The decision is framed as an attempt to reset the squad and support structure during the tour after the second-Test result.
