Ben Duckett's 'Fantastic' Century Rescues England After Top-Order Collapse in Lahore ODI

Ben Duckett struck a superb, battling century to rescue England from a disastrous start in their one-day international against Pakistan in Lahore. After England lost early wickets and found themselves in deep trouble, Duckett's composed and aggressive innings turned the tide. His hundred, described as 'fantastic' by observers, anchored the recovery and gave England a fighting chance in the match. The left-hander mixed caution with aggression, finding the boundary regularly while rotating the strike to keep the scoreboard moving. Pakistan's bowlers had earlier ripped through England's top order, but Duckett's resilience and strokeplay frustrated the hosts. His century is a timely reminder of his talent and temperament in the 50-over format. With the series on the line, Duckett's knock could prove pivotal. England will hope to build on this recovery and put Pakistan under pressure in the remaining overs.
