June 11, 2024 23:12

Pak 103-2 (17 ovs) vs Canada 106-7 | Scorecard

Leggie Siddiqui comes back into the attack. Rizwan uses his feet to get to the pitch as he plays a beautiful inside out shot for a six over the covers.

He clips the next ball in the gap through midwicket for a couple of runs followed by a dot ball.

Rizwan taps the fourth ball with soft hands on the off-side for a quick single and Fakhar does the same next ball.

Pakistan need 11 from 3 overs. Rizwan takes a single first ball before Fakhar has a big swipe across the line but is beaten.

He gets just a single to deep point followed by two singles as Pakistan bring up their 100, in the 17th over.

Rizwan picks three off the last ball to deep midwicket to complete his fifty from 52 balls -- the slowest fifty by a Pakistan batter in T20 Internationals.
