Babar Azam and Saud Shakeel were putting together a fine partnership for Pakistan when Rehan turned the advantage firmly in England’s way with the wickets of Azam, Mohammad Rizwan and Shakeel in a six-over stretch.
He cleaned up the last two scalps of Mohammad Wasim and Agha Salman to finish with a five-for on debut as Pakistan were bowled out for 216, setting England a target of 167. Rehan became the 53rd England bowler to take a five-wicket haul on Test debut, a feat that Will Jacks had achieved earlier in the series.
However, Rehan’s age made him the youngest to the feat on Test debut. Rehan had earlier become England’s youngest Test debutant when he was handed a cap for the third Test of the series.
Earlier this year, Ahmed impressed in the ICC U19 Men’s Cricket World Cup as England’s second-highest wicket-taker with 12 wickets in four matches at an average of 12.58.
