His lightning-fast innings consisted of seven 4s and 9 sixers. This has elevated Pakistan’s chances for this match. Why? Because the rain has stopped the play. Fakhar steered the innings to 160 runs in 21.3 overs. If we consider DSL, the target in 21.3 overs would have been 150.
PAKISTAN IS 10 RUNS AHEAD.
This means Pakistan will win this match.

Fakhar has also equalled the record for most tons in a calendar against the same team. He has hit 4 hundred against New Zealand in 2023. It seems like he loves to bat against the Kiwis!
