Pakistan vs Canada Highlights, T20 World Cup 2024: Babar’s Fast Bowlers Help Pak Secure A Win

Mohammad Rizwan and captain Babar Azam starred as Pakistan stayed alive at the T20 World Cup with a seven-wicket win over Canada on Tuesday. Knowing defeat would condemn them to a shock first round exit, Rizwan and Babar put on a match-winning second-wicket partnership of 63 as Pakistan reached their target of 107 with 15 balls to spare. Opener Rizwan finished undefeated on 53 off 53 balls with two fours and a six for his 29th T20 international half-century while Babar made 33 off as many deliveries with one four and a six. The victory came after 2009 champions Pakistan had lost both their first two Group A fixtures.
