- England snatched defeat from the jaws of victory again as Shadab Khan scored a remarkable maiden international century to guide Pakistan to a stunning one-wicket victory in Sunday’s ODI Tri-Series match in Lahore.
- Chasing 242, Pakistan were reduced to 154 for nine before Shadab Khan (113 not out) and last-man Haris Rauf (7 not out) shared an unbroken 89-run tenth-wicket partnership to seal the win with 17 balls remaining.
- Shadab marshalled the strike masterfully, hitting five sixes in his 96-ball knock—the highest score by a number eight batter – and survived a crucial LBW review on 97 after a thin inside edge was detected.
- Earlier, England posted a total of 241 all out, underpinned by Ben Duckett's majestic 105 off 111 balls alongside useful contributions from Sam Curran (42) and Gus Atkinson (36 not out).
- England's bowlers initially took control through Jamie Overton's three for 43 and two wickets apiece for Atkinson and Liam Dawson, but a third successive tournament defeat leaves their campaign hanging by a thread.
