T20 WC: Sahibzada Farhan’s Unbeaten 100 Guides Pakistan To 199/3 Against Namibia
T20 World Cup: In a must-win game for his side, Sahibzada Farhan produced a sensational century under pressure as Pakistan piled up a formidable 199/3 in their allotted 20 overs against Namibia in a Group A clash of the ICC Men’s T20 World Cup at the Sinhalese Sports Club in Colombo on Wednesday.
Farhan overcame early discomfort and physical strain to deliver one of the finest knocks of the tournament, finishing unbeaten on a magnificent 100 off 58 balls. His innings, laced with clean striking and remarkable composure, marked only the second century by a Pakistan batter in T20 World Cup history, following Ahmed Shehzad’s landmark effort in 2014.
Pakistan made a steady start after being asked to bat, with Sahibzada Farhan and Saim Ayub negotiating a probing new-ball spell from Namibia’s disciplined attack. Ayub showed flashes of intent but struggled to convert his start, eventually edging Jack Brassell behind for 14 in the sixth over, leaving Pakistan at 47/1 at the end of the Power-play.
