LAHORE: Pakistan continued their dominant performance at the inaugural Arab Baseball Classic by securing a commanding 10-3 win over United Arab Emirates in Dubai on Friday.

Having already defeated Bangladesh 10-0 in their opening match, Pakistan extended their unbeaten run with another resounding victory.

While UAE showed some resistance, managing to score three runs, they were ultimately overwhelmed by Pakistan’s superior play, resulting in a comfortable win.

Key contributors for Pakistan included Syed Muhammad Shah, Ayaz Ansari, Mohammad Hussain, Wasim Akram, Musa, and Zain, all of whom played pivotal roles in ensuring their team’s easy victory.

With two consecutive wins, Pakistan currently lead their group, reaffirming their strong position in the tournament.
