LAHORE MIRROR — Mohammad Haris’s brisk 66 and a dominant display by Pakistan’s spinners secured a 93-run victory over Oman in their opening Asia Cup match at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Friday.
Chasing 161, Oman collapsed for 67 in 16.4 overs, their second-lowest total in T20 internationals, behind the 47 all out against England in the 2024 T20 World Cup.
Hammad Mirza top-scored with 27, but the rest of the batting offered little resistance.
Batting first, Pakistan posted 160-7 in their 20 overs, thanks to Haris’ 66 off 43 balls with seven fours and three sixes. Sahibzada Farhan chipped in with 29.
