In an exciting clash in the 3rd T20I between New Zealand and Pakistan, the Pakistani team emerged victorious by 9 wickets, thanks to an extraordinary performance by 22-year-old Hassan Nawaz. Nawaz, who had struggled in the first two matches of the series, turned the game around with an exceptional innings, scoring 105 runs off just 45 balls.
Nawaz’s blistering century is now the fastest century ever scored by a Pakistani player in T20 Internationals. His remarkable knock was filled with aggressive stroke play, including boundaries and sixes, which kept the New Zealand bowlers on the back foot throughout the innings.
Pakistan’s chase of 204 runs seemed like a challenging task, but Nawaz’s dominance on the field made it look effortless. His performance helped Pakistan comfortably reach the target, and they clinched the win with a commanding 9-wicket margin. Along with Nawaz, Mohammad Haris contributed with a quickfire 41 runs off 20 balls, further easing the pressure on the team.
This victory was a redemption for Nawaz, who faced criticism after underperforming in the previous two matches. His brilliant century in this match not only helped Pakistan win but also showcased his immense talent and potential on the international stage.
With this win, Pakistan has now claimed the 3rd T20I match of the series, and the team will look forward to carrying this momentum into the upcoming matches. Hassan Nawaz’s knock will undoubtedly go down in history as one of the finest T20 performances by a Pakistani batsman.
