Although Pakistan faced defeat against India, our young cricketer, Sahibzada Farhan, shone brightly during the match.
He became the first-ever Pakistani to hit a six against India’s Jasprit Bumrah in international cricket.
The opener hit a total of three sixes during the match.
Sahibzada Farhan scored 40 runs off 44 runs and remained the top-scorer for Pakistan.
Pakistan Cricket Team set a target of 128 runs for India on the loss of nine wickets.
Saim Ayub and Fakhar Zaman are facing heavy backlash on social media after their poor performance.
India’s performance against Pakistan
Chasing a modest target of 128 runs, captain Suryakumar Yadav held his nerve following an early burst from Abhishek Sharma to see India through the winning line.
They chased the target in 15.5 overs with the captain leading from the front with an unbeaten 47 off 37. He was well supported by Sharma and Tilak Varma, who scored 31 each for India at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.
India scored 131-3, which is a great margin as Pakistan made 127 on the loss of nine wickets, and only Shaheen and Farhan played well.
Upcoming matches
Pakistan’s next match against UAE is on September 17th and India will now face Oman on September 19th.
