 led his team to back-to-back Test victories and secured the series before the fourth and final Test. That Test was marred by a ball-tampering controversy, which culminated in Pakistan refusing to take the field after the tea interval in protest to a decision by umpire Darrell Hair to penalise the Pakistani team for ball-tampering. This led the umpires eventually to award the game to England, who thus won the Test series 3–0. However, this result was later changed to a draw, meaning that England now win the series 2-0.

Pakistani cricket team in England in 2006. Test series result: England won 2–0. Twenty20 International: Pakistan won one-off match. One-day International Series: Drawn 2–2.
