Pakistan defeated England by one wicket in a one-day international in Lahore after Shadab Khan struck an unbeaten 113 from a seemingly lost position.
Pakistan defeated England by one wicket in a one-day international at Lahore, recovering from 154 for nine to chase 242 in an extraordinary last-wicket stand.
England had posted 241 all out from their 46.4 overs. Ben Duckett made 105 off 111 balls, with only the opener, Sam Curran and Gus Atkinson passing 20. Jamie Overton took three for 43 with the ball.
England's bowlers appeared to have seized control when they reduced Pakistan to 154 for nine, 88 short of victory. But Shadab Khan, a number eight batsman, took the match away from them with an unbeaten 113 from 96 deliveries. The BBC reports this was the highest score by a number eight in an ODI.
Shaded was supported by Haris Rauf, Pakistan's number 11, who scored an unbeaten seven from 19 balls. Together they added 89 runs for the tenth wicket. The BBC reports this was a new record for a last-wicket partnership to win an ODI.
Drama came when Shadab was given out lbw to Gus Atkinson on 97, with 21 runs still required. The players shook hands before Shadab reviewed the decision. DRS found an inside edge and he was reprieved. He then struck boundaries to secure victory, with Rauf hitting debutant Henry Crocombe for the winning boundary.
England are all but out of the tri-series following the defeat. The BBC reports that their exit will be confirmed if Sri Lanka beat Pakistan on Tuesday. Three days earlier, England had conceded 430 to lose to Sri Lanka in the same tournament, also from a winning position.
