England vs Pakistan 2016: 5 memorable test matches between the nations over the years

#5 Abu Dhabi 2012

Abdur Rehman spun a web around England

This game will always be remembered as one of the worst batting collapses of the England batting order. Chasing down a target of 145 runs, the famed English batting line up was washed away for a paltry 72 runs.

Abdur Rehman, the left arm spinner spun a web around the batting line up and finished with figures of 6 for 25. This collapse was so spectacular that they lasted for only 36.1 overs on a track which spun, but was by no means a minefield.

Pakistan who led the series 2-0 would go on to win the series 3-0. An insipid performance from England was indeed a poor reflection of the number one test status.
