Shadab Khan and Naseem Shah led Pakistan to an exciting win against Afghanistan, making it 2-0 in the series, even though Fazalhaq Farooqi tried a tricky move called “Mankad” at a crucial point. This win put Pakistan at the top of the ODI rankings.

In a close game against Afghanistan, Pakistan had to chase a tough target of 300 runs. At first, they started slowly, but they had to score faster as time went on. Shadab Khan, who is good at both batting and bowling, played a big role. He scored 48 runs from 35 balls, including hitting the ball to the boundary three times and hitting a six. This helped Pakistan get back on track and get more points.

As the game got closer to the end and Shadab was playing really well, something surprising happened. When only 11 runs were needed from the last six balls, Shadab Khan, who was doing great and almost winning the game for Pakistan, got out in a way called “Mankad” by Fazalhaq Farooqi. People talked a lot about whether this was fair on social media. But Shadab Khan was nice about it and accepted the decision, showing good sportsmanship, which was missing from the Afghan team.

Pakistan was in a tough spot because they had only one player left, and he wasn’t a very good batter. But Naseem Shah, who had done well against Afghanistan before, did something amazing again. He hit two really important boundaries, which helped Pakistan win the game in a very close finish. They managed to score 300 runs with just one ball left, and that was the first time Pakistan had ever done that with just one wicket left.

Shadab Khan was really good throughout the game, so he got the “Player of the Match” award. Naseem Shah, who did well when things were hard, got the title of “Player of the Moment” from the fans. These top players showed they could handle tough situations, and because of them, Pakistan won the series 2-0. This exciting game didn’t just show that Pakistan could chase big scores, but also that the players could keep going even when things were tough, which is what sports is all about.
