Watch: Mohsin Naqvi congratulates Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf after Pakistan’s miraculous 1-wicket win vs England

The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman, Mohsin Naqvi, congratulated both Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf on their miraculous one-wicket victory during the 242-run chase against England in the second round of the tri-series 2026 clash at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. 

Pakistan came into this contest on the back of their successive victories in the first round of the tournament. They earned a 37-run win in the 305-run defence against Sri Lanka to begin the event before bundling out England for 215 and collecting an 87-run win against the Harry Brook-led side.

He hugged them for their historic innings and offered full encouragement as the moment went viral on social media platforms.

The Shaheen Afridi-led side has now reached the final of the event, which will be played on October 31 at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore. Their next group-stage encounter, however, will be against Sri Lanka on October 27 at the same venue.

How Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf won the clash for Pakistan against England

Even though most of the England batters failed to stand on the crease, their opening batter, Ben Duckett, smashed a dashing knock of 105 runs off 111 balls at a strike rate of 94.59, including 10 boundaries and two sixes. Sam Curran and Gus Atkinson also contributed a few small knocks in the lower order.

Pakistan were nowhere in the position of completing the chase at 154/9 in 33.5 overs. But the 89-run stand for the tenth wicket between Shadab and Rauf, where the former smashed unbeaten 113 runs in 96 balls, thanks to 13 boundaries and five sixes, earned them the magical win by one wicket.
