Green Shirts Create History with a 10-Wicket Triumph Over Bangladesh

Pakistan’s blind cricket team achieved a monumental milestone by lifting the T20 Blind World Cup trophy for the first time. The historic final took place at the iconic Multan Cricket Stadium, where the Green Shirts delivered an exceptional performance to secure a commanding 10-wicket victory against Bangladesh.


Bangladesh Sets a Competitive Target

Winning the toss and opting to bat first, Bangladesh managed to post a respectable total of 139 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in their 20 overs. The standout performer for Bangladesh was Arif Hussain, who scored an impressive 54 runs.

On the bowling front, Pakistan’s Babar Ali was the star, claiming three wickets. Motiullah and Mohammad Salman also contributed with a wicket each, limiting Bangladesh to a manageable score.


Pakistan’s Flawless Chase

The chase was nothing short of a masterclass by Pakistan’s openers, Nisar Ali and Mohammad Safdar.

  • Nisar Ali scored an unbeaten 72 runs.
  • Mohammad Safdar added an undefeated 47 runs.

The duo effortlessly reached the target in just 11 overs, securing the win without losing a single wicket.


A Moment of Pride for Pakistan

This victory marks more than just a championship—it is a dream come true for Pakistan, elevating the nation’s pride on the global stage. The triumph ends India’s decade-long dominance in blind cricket, as they had won every T20 Blind World Cup since the tournament’s inception in 2012.


Breaking India’s Streak

India had remained undefeated in the tournament’s history, winning three consecutive titles:

  • 2012: Defeated Pakistan.
  • 2017: Defeated Pakistan again.
  • 2022: Overcame Bangladesh.

Pakistan’s historic victory not only ends this streak but cements their legacy as the new champions of the blind T20 World Cup.
