Pakistan vs. England — Tri-Nation Series

The subtitles do not provide match-clock timestamps, so the key moments are presented in the order reported.

England were dismissed for 241. Ben, as identified in the subtitles, held the innings together with 105 from 111 balls, including 10 fours and two sixes. Sam Curran added 42, while another England batter made 36. Pakistan’s Shaheen Afridi took four wickets; Arafat Minhas and Raza Ullah claimed two apiece.

Pakistan’s chase lurched into trouble: nine wickets had fallen for 154, leaving Shadab Khan and number-11 Haris Rauf to rescue the innings. Shadab, batting at number eight, built an 89-run partnership with Rauf. He struck 113 from 96 balls, with 13 fours and five sixes, recording the first century of his career.

In the closing stages, Shadab was given out lbw and reacted angrily, striking his bat on the crease. He reviewed the decision; replays showed the ball had hit his bat, and the third umpire overturned the call. Given a reprieve, Shadab and Rauf completed the chase. Rauf had mostly been allowed to face only the last ball or two of each over, but he hit the winning shot off the final ball, sealing a historic Pakistan victory and a place in the Tri-Nation Series final.

Shadab was named Player of the Match. Captain Shaheen Afridi praised the pair’s effort and also reached a personal milestone: by dismissing Tom, he took his 150th ODI wicket in his 80th match, becoming Pakistan’s fastest fast bowler to reach that mark.
