The Story in 60 Seconds

Shadab Khan scored an unbeaten maiden international century to guide Pakistan to a dramatic one-wicket victory over England at Gaddafi Stadium. Chasing a target of 242, Pakistan collapsed to 154 for 9 before Shadab teamed up with Haris Rauf. The pair put together an unbroken 89-run stand for the tenth wicket, securing Pakistan's place in the Tri-Series final.

Earlier, Pakistan elected to bowl and dismissed England for 241, despite Ben Duckett's composed century and Sam Curran's resistance against a Shaheen Shah Afridi-led attack. England's bowlers dismantled Pakistan's top order through Gus Atkinson, Liam Dawson, and Jamie Overton, but Shadab's late counterattack and Haris Rauf's winning boundary sealed the historic chase in the 48th over.
