Pakistan wrapped up the Rawalpindi T20 with a dominant 7-wicket victory as Mohammad Nawaz delivered a complete all-round performance that earned him the Player of the Match award. Sri Lanka posted 128/7, but Pakistan chased the target comfortably in just 15.3 overs, thanks to disciplined bowling and confident batting.
Nawaz stood out with his control, breakthroughs, and maturity in the middle overs, tightening the game early and keeping Sri Lanka under pressure. His contribution played a major role in restricting the opponents to a below-par total.
Captain Salman Ali Agha praised the team’s “complete game,” saying Pakistan excelled in bowling, fielding, and batting. He highlighted the luxury of having quality all-rounders like Nawaz and Faheem Ashraf, who can both bowl full spells and contribute with the bat when needed. The skipper added that Pakistan’s bench strength is also shaping up strongly, giving them confidence ahead of the upcoming fixtures.
With this win, Pakistan sealed the series in style — and Nawaz once again proved why he remains one of Pakistan’s most valuable all-round options.
