An inexplicable batting collapse saw fancied India ‘A’ lose to Pakistan Shaheens by eight wickets in the Asia Cup Rising Stars tournament on Sunday.
Opting to field, Pakistan Shaheens staged a remarkable comeback to bowl out India ‘A’ for 136 after they were cruising along at 91-3 in the 10th over. In reply, the Shaheens chased down the target of 137 with as many as 40 balls to spare for their second successive victory in the tournament, even as India suffered their first loss after starting the campaign with a big win against the UAE. Opener Maaz Sadaqat top-scored for Shaheens with an unbeaten 47-ball 79.
Earlier, India’s teen batting sensation Suryavanshi blazed his way to a 28-ball 45 and Naman Dhir smashed a 20-ball 35.
