Pakistan secured a six-wicket victory over Ireland in the third T20I, clinching the series 2-1 on Tuesday. Opting to bowl first, the Men in Green restricted the hosts to 178 for 7, with noteworthy performances from Shaheen Afridi (4-0-14-3) and Imad Wasim (4-0-23-1).

In response, Pakistan chased down the target in 17 overs, with significant contributions from Mohammad Rizwan (56 off 38) and Babar Azam (75 off 42). This win put the commendable innings of Ireland’s stand-in captain, Lorcan Tucker (73 off 41), in vain.

Babar Azam hits four sixes in Benjamin White’s over

Babar showcased his prowess with the bat by smashing four sixes in a single over at the Clontarf Cricket Club Ground in Dublin. Facing Ireland’s leg-spinner Benjamin White in the 14th over of the second innings, Babar made a statement right from the outset by launching the first ball over long-on to bring up his half-century. Continuing his aggressive approach, the Pakistan skipper hammered the next ball for another maximum, intensifying the pressure on the bowler.

The third delivery exemplified Babar’s ability to exploit loose deliveries, as he dispatched it over deep mid-wicket with remarkable power despite White’s attempt to deceive him with pace. Although the batter missed connecting with the fourth ball, he displayed his skill by smashing the fifth ball over cow corner for a towering six. The over concluded with a single towards deep square leg, accumulating a total of 25 runs.
