Pakistan Clinches Hong Kong Super Sixes Title
Pakistan secured the Hong Kong Super Sixes championship on Sunday with a convincing win over Kuwait, concluding an exciting tournament on a high note.
Dominant Batting Display
Batting first, Pakistan amassed a formidable total of 135 for 3 in six overs. Captain Abbas Afridi led with an explosive 52 from just 11 balls, hitting seven towering sixes before retiring hurt. Abdul Samad contributed 42 runs off 13 balls, while Khawaja Nafay added a swift 22 from six deliveries, as Pakistan’s top order overwhelmed the Kuwaiti bowling attack.
Kuwait's Response
Kuwait showed resilience but fell short, scoring 92 runs in five overs. Meet Bhavsar impressed with an unbeaten 33 and Adnan Idrees made a rapid 30. However, their efforts were not enough to match Pakistan’s high scoring pace.
Key Bowling Performances
- Maaz Sadaqat was instrumental with the ball, taking 3 wickets for 29 runs.
- Abbas Afridi and Muhammad Shahzad claimed one wicket each.
Path to the Final
Earlier in the day, Pakistan narrowly defeated Australia by one run in a thrilling semi-final encounter.
"Skipper Abbas Afridi led from the front with a blistering 52 off just 11 balls, smashing seven towering sixes before retiring hurt."
"Despite Meet Bhavsar’s impressive three-wicket haul, Kuwait bowlers struggled to contain Pakistan’s explosive batting, which maintained a remarkable run rate of 22.5 an over."
Summary: Pakistan dominated both in batting and bowling throughout the tournament, culminating in a well-deserved Super Sixes title victory.
