Unpredictable Pakistan Strikes Again π₯π₯π₯
Pakistan Cricket Team
Pakistan; A popular cricket-playing nation located in South Asia. This country is known by many as an unpredictable cricket team. Just as England is an unpredictable team in football, so is Pakistan in cricket. Can do anything at any time, which is almost unimaginable. Pakistan loses many easy matches and wins almost impossible matches.
Pakistan proved its unpredictable name by winning the 2017 ICC Champions Trophy. Do you remember the tournament? After the departure of the team's senior players, the Pakistan team went on the back foot. Although they didn't start the tournament as favorites. In the end, they defeated India by a huge margin in the final and took the trophy. But before the start of the tournament, did anyone think that Pakistan will be the champion? I didn't expect it at all!
Pakistan proved their unpredictable name again in the fourth T20 against England. From the brink of defeat, they won the match by making a record.
After 15 years, the England national team has come to play the series in Pakistan. Four T20 matches have already been played between Pakistan and England, with both teams winning two each. But the last match was full of drama. Unpredictable Pakistan proved their name in this match. Let's discuss what happened in this match.
At the beginning of the match, England national team decided to bowl by winning the toss. Moeen Ali-led England team had a chance to secure the series win by winning this match. They entered the field for that purpose. Pakistan's two openers, Rizwan and Babar Azam got off to a great start. After Babar Azam''s departed after making a huge partnership of 97 runs.
However, Mohammad Rizwan was impeccable throughout the entire innings. The Pakistani opener, who is in the peak time of his career, returned to the pavilion after playing an innings of 88 runs off 67 balls. Pakistan's innings ended with 166 runs at the end of the scheduled 20 overs.
In response, England lost three wickets for just 14 runs. However, while England's top-order batsmen failed with the bat, the middle-order batsmen continued to take responsibility and take the team closer to victory. In the end, Leam Dawson's incredible power-hitting almost ensured victory for England. Only 5 runs were needed from 10 balls & three wickets in hand.
Just at that time, Pakistani pacer Haris Rauf turned the tide of this match. After sending two consecutive batters back to the dressing room, the Pakistan team began to dream of victory. Pakistan got an incredible win with a great run-out in the last over.
The Pakistan team returned to a 2-2 level in the series with this victory. As such, the winner of the T20 series will be determined after the last T20 match. Pakistan and England will meet tomorrow in the final T-20.
