England collapse before late surge

Pakistan needed 242 runs to win but were reduced to 154 for nine after 33.5 overs. Shadab Khan walked out to bat at 103 for six and faced a difficult situation with 88 runs required.

Record partnership seals victory

Shadab reached his century after being given out lbw, but a successful review confirmed an inside edge on the ball. He then formed an unbeaten 89-run partnership with Haris Rauf to guide Pakistan to a one-wicket win.

Hosts advance to final

The victory marked Pakistan's third consecutive win in the tri-series and secured their place in the upcoming final. Shadab finished with 113 runs off 96 balls, including 13 fours and five sixes.
