Mohammad Nawaz's all-round effort helped Pakistan win a nail-biter against the arch-rivals India in the Super four game of the ongoing Asia Cup 2022 on Sunday (September 4).

Nawaz was on song with the bat and ball as his all-round heroics made sure that Pakistan beat India in a thriller to hand the defending champions their first loss of this edition of the Asia Cup. 

Promoted up in the batting order in a run chase of 182, the left-handed batter held his nerves and smashed his T20I career-best- 42 off 20 balls laced with six boundaries and two maximums. With the ball, he picked the all-important wicket of Suryakumar Yadav while also keeping the scoring rate in check.
