A few days ago, the United States cricket team surprised by losing the Bangladesh series. This time Monank Patel’s team caused an even bigger incident. The host team tied the match with the former world champion and last time runner-up Pakistan. The fate of the match will be decided in the super over.
Pakistan tied with the hosts in the match held in Dallas, USA on Thursday (June 6). The United States stopped at 159 runs at the end of the scheduled over after going down to bat with the target of 160 runs given by Pakistan.
USA needed 15 runs in the last over to win. Pakistan pacer Haris Rauf scored 10 runs in the first 5 balls. 5 runs were needed from the last ball. United States batsman Nitish Kumar collected 4 runs by blasting Haris Rauf’s foul ball with long off.
Earlier, after losing the toss and batting, Pakistan scored 159 runs after losing 7 wickets at the end of the scheduled 20 overs. Pakistan lost 3 wickets in 5 overs. Babar Azam and Shadab Khan brought their challenging collection from there. Shadab scored 40 runs off 25 balls with 3 sixes and 1 four. 44 runs from 43 balls came from Babar’s bat.
In reply, the United States were on the way to victory with the bats of Monak Patel, Andries Gause and Aaron Jones. But in the end, Pakistani bowlers tied the game with controlled bowling. Monak scored 50 runs for USA. Gaus scored 35 runs and Aaron Jones was unbeaten on 36 off 26 balls.
