National team wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan scored yet another unwanted record by scoring a half century against Canada.
At the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York, the national team beat Canada for its first win of the tournament. However, to chase 107 against a weak team like Canada, Pakistan took 17.3 overs and won by 7. In this match, Mohammad Rizwan scored 53 off 53 balls, including 2 fours and 1 six.
Rizwan is the first Pakistani batsman to score a fifty in the 2024 T20 World Cup and the third cricketer to score a half-century at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium.
Rizwan scored the slowest half-century in this edition, previously held by South African batsman David Miller, who scored a century in 50 balls.
The national team also failed to hit one four in the first 4 overs against Canada.
