Shadab Khan and Pakistan have done the unthinkable against England. There is a reason Pakistan are called cricket’s most unpredictable team. They can lose to weaker opponents, beat stronger sides and throw away matches from winning positions. But this time…
Shadab Khan led Pakistan to an extraordinary one-wicket win over England after the hosts recovered from 154/9 to chase down a 242-run target. Batting at No. 8, Shadab struck an unbeaten 113 off 96 balls and shared a record-breaking unbroken 89-run stand for the tenth wicket with Haris Rauf. Pakistan reached 243/9 in 47.1 overs to seal the miracle victory in the tri-series clash.
Earlier in the match, Ben Duckett scored 105 to guide England to 241 all out in 46.4 overs, with Shaheen Afridi claiming 4/46. Despite Jamie Overton taking three wickets to push Pakistan to the brink of defeat, Shadab set world records for the highest individual ODI score by a No. 8 batter and the highest tenth-wicket partnership in a successful men's ODI chase.
