In a commanding display of cricketing prowess, Pakistan secured a resounding seven-wicket victory over Sri Lanka in the T20 tri-series on Saturday, thanks to Sahibzada Farhan’s career-best unbeaten 80 off 45 balls. The match, held in Rawalpindi, saw Pakistan chase down Sri Lanka’s modest total of 128-7 with ease, reaching 131-3 in just 15.3 overs. Farhan’s explosive innings, which included five sixes and six boundaries, was the cornerstone of Pakistan’s dominant performance. Sri Lanka, already reeling from a 67-run loss to Zimbabwe in their opening game, continued to struggle with their batting, managing only 128 runs despite captain Dasun Shanaka’s decision to bat first after winning the toss. Pakistan’s bowlers, led by left-arm spinner Mohammad Nawaz (3-16) and leg-spinner Abrar Ahmed (1-28), kept the Sri Lankan batters in check, with Nawaz delivering crucial breakthroughs in the middle overs. Farhan’s aggressive approach from the outset set the tone for Pakistan’s chase, as he forged a 69-run partnership with Babar Azam (16) and sealed the victory with a straight six off Malinga. Sri Lanka’s captain Shanaka expressed disappointment with his team’s performance, acknowledging the need for improvement in their batting. Pakistan, having won both their league games, will next face Zimbabwe on Sunday.
