Nagoya: Abdul Samad smashed 22 off five balls in an unbeaten 30 on Thursday as Pakistan's men cruised into their maiden Asian Games cricket final, where arch-rivals India are the potential opponents.
Pakistan thumped Bangladesh by six wickets with nine balls to spare in a semi-final reduced to 13 overs because the outfield was too wet for play at the start time of 9:00 am.
