Shaheen was the standout bowler for Pakistan, taking three wickets for just 28 runs in his four oversSri Lanka set a modest target of 134 runs for Pakistan in the must-win Asia Cup 2025's Super Fours match at Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi, on Tuesday.
Put into bat first, the defending champions managed to accumulate 133-8 in their allotted 20 overs despite Kamindu Mendis’s half-century.
Sri Lanka got off to a shaky start to their innings as Shaheen Shah Afridi dismissed both openers — Kusal Mendis (zero) and Pathum Nissanka (eight) — in his first two overs.
Kamindu, on the other hand, stood his ground firm and went on to score a fighting half-century for Sri Lanka.
The left-handed batter top-scored for Sri Lanka with a valiant 50 off 44 deliveries, smashing three fours and two sixes.
