Over 11: Good over for Sri Lanka as only 5 runs come off it

Published February 28, 2026 Updated February 28, 2026 07:24pm

Sahibzada started the over with a double, before trying to heave the next one for a six but missing it completely. He then took a single off the fourth delivery to get off the strike.

Fakhar moved out of his crease and played the ball towards the off side for a comfortable two.

The last delivery was full and wide and Fakhar too missed it in an attempt to heave it out of the park.

Pakistan are 107-0 at the end of 11 overs.
