PAK vs ENG: Shadab Khan Snatches Unlikely Victory for Pakistan Against England
Shadab Khan’s unbeaten 113 and Haris Rauf’s 89-run last-wicket stand rescued Pakistan after it slipped to 154-9 in a chase of 242.
On Sunday at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore, Pakistan secured a thrilling one-wicket victory over England, with Shadab Khan scoring an unbeaten 113 to chase 242 in 47.1 overs.
England posted 241 runs after being asked to bat first, anchored by Ben Duckett's fluent 105. Shaheen Shah Afridi restricted the tourists by claiming four wickets for 46 runs.
Falling to 154-9, Pakistan recovered through an unbroken 89-run partnership between Shadab and Haris Rauf. Shadab survived a late DRS review while needing 22 runs, with UltraEdge showing an inside edge.
This defeat leaves England's tri-series final hopes in jeopardy after conceding 430 runs to Sri Lanka earlier. They face elimination if Sri Lanka defeats Pakistan on Tuesday.
England's performance remains concerning, as they suffered a second consecutive collapse in the tri-series. Harry Brook's side must now rely on external results to determine their fate.
