Babar Azam’s men snatched a thrilling victory from the jaws of defeat in the Asia Cup match against Afghanistan on Wednesday.
Naseem Shah hit two consecutive sixes off two juicy full tosses when 11 was needed off the final over, sending the Pakistan dressing room into wild celebrations. Afghanistan were previously restricted to 129/8, but their bowlers kept them in contention until the very last over, but Shah had other ideas. During the course of the match, Pakistan fans experienced a range of emotions, and their live-commentary on the microblogging site Twitter made the contest even more entertaining.
The Pakistanis are also able to kill two birds with one stone by eliminating India and Afghanistan from the Asia Cup. Therefore, Pakistan and Sri Lanka have qualified for the Asia Cup 2022 final, which will be played on Sunday (September 11). Tomorrow, Thursday, India, the defending champion, and Afghanistan will face off in a low-key match for both teams.
