## Resource

New Zealand just obliterated England by 160 runs in the third Test, sealing a 2-1 series win and handing England their first home series loss since 2021 — and their first multi-Test home defeat in 14 years. The match spiraled after England captain Ben Stokes retired mid-game, watching from the sidelines as his team imploded early, losing two wickets in five balls during their chase. Despite a late spark from Jamie Smith (60) and Gus Atkinson, England crumbled to 212 all out. The loss deepens England’s woes — now 7 of 9 Tests lost since the Ashes — with Pakistan looming. New Zealand, despite injuries to Blair Tickner and Will ORourke, delivered a masterclass with their bowlers, proving resilience and teamwork can overcome adversity.
