Despite scoring 314 runs, Pakistan lost its sweat, Netherlands made Babar Azam’s team complete workout

If the Pakistan team takes on the Netherlands, then without looking at the scorecard, anyone will claim that the team captained by Babar Azam, number four in the ICC rankings, will win easily. However, this did not happen in Tuesday’s match. Despite making a mountain-like score of 314 runs, the Pakistan team had to work hard to win.

Even though the Netherlands team suffered 16 runs, but gave great pain to Pakistan full of star players. Before the Asia Cup, the failure of bowlers against the 15th ranked team Netherlands in the ICC list raised many questions in front of Babar Azam and the Pakistan management. In reply to 314 runs, Netherlands scored 298 for 8 in 50 overs.

For the Netherlands, most captain Scott Edward 71, Tom Cooper and Vikramjit Singh played a strong innings of 65-65 runs. The Netherlands lost due to the fall of a few wickets in the beginning and the end, but if it had not been so, they would have won.

Earlier, Pakistan scored 314 for 6 on the back of Fakhar Zaman’s 109, captain Babar Azam’s 74 and Shadab Khan’s stormy 48.
