It was his innings of 89 that helped Pakistan win the finals by 33 runs. In his blistering knock, he hit eight fours and three sixes.

Speaking to the media after the match, Shehzad revealed his intentions of batting through till the end and said, “I failed to score good runs in the first two matches but today I decided to stay till the end – thinking if others can do it why not me?! – and it came very nicely. I have been working hard.”

“I’d like to name Arthur, the coaching staff has been through thick and thin. That’s what you want from them”, he concluded.
