1 min read


Pakistan spinner Sufiyan Muqeem took a career-best 5 wickets to help his side thrash Zimbabwe by 10 wickets in the second of their three-match T20 series here on Tuesday.

Zimbabwe chose to bat and, after reaching 37 in 27 balls, were skittled out for 57 in 12.4 overs as they made their lowest score in the format.

Muqeem did most of the damage, with the left-armer taking five wickets in just 2.4 overs, a BBC report said.

Pakistan reached their target with 87 balls to spare.

Saim Ayub scored 36 from 18 balls and fellow opener Omair Yousuf hit 22 from 15 balls in what
was Pakistan’s largest ever win by the number of deliveries remaining.

Pakistan will be aiming to complete a 3-0 series victory when the teams play again on Thursday.
