Pakistan won their first home Test series since February 2021 when they defeated South Africa 2-0.

‘Disappointing’

Ben Stokes responded to the series loss by saying that losing games for England is painful and upsetting before emphasizing the importance of consistency.

“Losing games for England hurts so it’s disappointing,” said Ben Stokes.

“We need to do things for longer. As I said, we did good things in very small amounts of times at certain points throughout the second game and this game. But when you don’t sustain that, you know you’re always going to start falling away,” Ben Stokes added.

Pakistan floods: South Asia’s monsoon explained

Floods in Pakistan have killed more than 1,000 people after what its climate change minister called a record unbroken cycle of monsoon rains with “8 weeks of non-stop torrents”. AFP explains what the monsoon is, why it is so important and yet so dangerous, and how climate change and other man-made effects may be altering the vast life-giving but destructive annual weather system. What is the South Asian monsoon? The Southwest or the Asian Summer Monsoon is essentially a colossal sea breeze that brings South Asia 70-80 percent of its annual rainfall between June and September every year.

The monsoon is vital for agriculture and therefore for the livelihoods of millions of farmers and for food security in the poor region of around two billion people. But it brings destruction every ye...

ISLAMABAD: The Capital Development Authority (CDA) on Monday removed a recently installed ‘Golden Hands’ sculpture located along Margalla Avenue in Islamabad. The artwork featured two large golden hands holding two balls like objects resembling a world map.
