The Pakistan Champions T20 Cup 2024 brought another thrilling moment when Panthers-PAK skipper Haider Ali lit up the game with a sensational pull shot. Ali’s short was a thing of beauty that left fans and commentators buzzing

Haider Ali’s Pull Shot Leaves Everyone in Awe in Champions T20 Cup

It all happened in the sixth over when Muhammad Musa bowled a short one with real pace. Haider didn’t flinch. He read the ball perfectly, got into position, and unleashed a thunderous pull shot.

The ball sailed over deep backward square leg for a massive six. The crack off the bat was pure music, and the shot had everything - timing, power, and flamboyance.

The crowd erupted, teammates applauded, and the commentators couldn’t stop praising the young batter. It was the kind of shot that makes you sit up and take notice. Haider Ali’s pull was straight out of a coaching manual but with an added touch of swag.


A Short Spark in a Tough Innings

Sadly, Haider’s innings didn’t last long. He managed to score 26 off 20 balls before Shahid Aziz got him out. Despite his promising start, the rest of the Panthers’ batters struggled. Umar Siddiq chipped in with 26, and Danish Aziz fought hard for his 34. But the team couldn’t capitalize and folded for just 123 runs.

The Lions-PAK bowlers were on fire. Muhammad Musa and Shahid Aziz (4 wickets) kept it tight, and the Panthers just couldn’t break free. It was a tough day at the office for Haider’s side.

Imam-ul-Haq Leads Lions To First Win

The Lions-PAK made light work of the chase. Skipper Imam-ul-Haq was exceptional as he smashed 45 and led from the front. Hasan Nawaz was equally impressive as he scored a classy 44. Shahzaib Khan added 28 to make sure there were no hiccups. The Lions cruised home to an eight-wicket win and secured their first victory of the tournament.
