In a thrilling Group A match of the Asia Cup against India in Kandy, Pakistan’s pace trio, consisting of Shaheen Afridi, Naseem Shah, and Haris Rauf, etched their names in the record books.

Shaheen Afridi, the towering left-arm pacer, set the tone early in the innings. His searing pace and pinpoint accuracy proved too formidable for the Indian batsmen to contend with. Afridi’s sheer brilliance accounted for four crucial wickets, dismissing the likes of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli, Hardik Pandya, and Ravindra Jadeja.

With the early wickets falling, Haris Rauf, renowned for his fiery spells, assumed control. He snatched key wickets, including those of Shubman Gill, Sheryas Iyer, and Ishan Kishan, further denting India’s hopes.
