Mohammed Rizwan and Mohammad Nawaz of Pakistan led to the superb win of Pakistan in Asia Cup 2022 on Sunday. Mohammed Rizwan’s 71 runs and Mohammad Nawaz powered five wickets were crucial for the victory of Pakistan over arch rival India in Dubai

An ANI report said, it was an exciting day of cricketing action for the fans as they got their money’s worth. Rizwan’s brilliant 71 off 51 balls proved to be the difference between both sides. Chasing 182, Pakistan openers Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan tried to give their side a solid start, mixed with some occasional big hits and consistent strike rotation. However, in the fourth over, spinner Ravi Bishnoi struck for India, sending back Babar Azam for 14 off 10 balls while the batter was trying to hit it over the midwicket region. At this point, Pakistan was 22/1.
