England captain Ben Stokes has hailed his "special group of players" for having "no interest in playing for the draws" after their remarkable 74 run win over Pakistan in Rawalpindi.
Stokes and head coach Brendon McCullum have got England playing a new positive and aggressive style of Test cricket and it has been hugely successful, with England winning seven out of eight games since their appointment.
Stokes and McCullum have both said they are prepared to lose in order to have a chance at winning and this victory was a perfect example of their mantra. Speaking after the win, Stokes said: "I don't think I have seen a group of players who want to put their body on the line as much for the other ten guys on the field - a really special group of players.
