🏏 Pakistan Qualifies for Final with Dominant 69-Run Victory

• Pakistan defeated Zimbabwe by a thumping 69-run margin (195/5 vs 126 all out) in Rawalpindi, becoming the first team to qualify for the T20I Tri-Series final. This was their third consecutive win in the series and fifth in a row in the T20I format. • The innings was anchored by a strong 103-run partnership, featuring half-centuries from Babar Azam (74 off 52 balls) and Sahibzada Farhan (63 off 41). Fakhar Zaman's late cameo (27 off 10 balls) ensured the total reached 195. • The bowling unit was spearheaded by Player of the Match, off-spinner Usman Tariq, who delivered a career-best 4/18, including a hat-trick—only the second Pakistan spinner to achieve this in T20I cricket. • For Zimbabwe, only Ryan Burl stood tall with an undefeated 67 off 49 balls. His knock helped set Zimbabwe's highest-ever 10th wicket T20I partnership (44 runs) and reduced the margin of defeat.
