Pakistan team management’s decision to include wicketkeeper batsman Sarfraz Ahmed proved fruitful in the crucial World Cup Pool B match against South Africa in Auckland on Saturday.
Sarfraz Ahmed, who did not play in Pakistan s first four pool matches, hit three sixes in one over before he ran himself out while taking a second run in a bid to reach his fifty.
He also hit five boundaries in his run-a-ball knock.
With his six catches in the match as a wicketkeeper, Sarfraz Ahmed also equaled the world record for most catches behind the stumps in a one-day international.
