It is important to say that Pakistani team failed to build momentum in the match and faced diffculties in chasing the score, as it proved to be next to impossible for them to win and even the efforts of Asad Shafiq (112) and the team captain Sarfaz Ahmed (69) weren’t enough to make it to the finishing line.

Otherwise, the record of the players remained poor and Shan Massod, Ashar Ali under performing very severely. The target was 317 and they needed 119 for the win, but there were short comings in the performances and the score halted, needing 68 runs to win the match.

It was ultimately an underwhelming day for Pakistan, who weren’t able to chase the runs but even a good batting partnership couldn’t save the day for them.
