In the 22nd game of the ICC T20 World Cup, which took place at Nassau County International Stadium in New York on Tuesday, Pakistan defeated Canada convincingly by seven wickets to record their first victory of the competition.
This victory followed heartbreaking defeats to the United States and India. Canada failed to get going after being asked to bat and only managed a meek score of 106 for 7 in their allotted 20 overs.
Aaron Johnson, who scored 52 from 44 balls with four boundaries and four sixes, was Canada’s best player. But the Pakistani bowlers dominated the innings, so he didn’t get much help at the other end.
Among Pakistan’s bowlers who made a significant impact was Mohammad Amir, who was awarded Player of the Match because to his outstanding 2 for 13 performance.
