U19 WC 2022 | SL U19 vs PAK U19: Qasim Akram ends campaign in style, scores a ton & bags fifer

Pakistan U19 team and especially captain Qasim Akram concluded the World Cup on a high after registering a mammoth 238-run win against Sri Lanka in Antigua. 

Batting first, Pakistan were off to a good start with openers Muhammad Shehzad and Haseebullah Khan putting up 134 runs on the board for the first wicket. 

Khan was then joined by captain Akram after Shezad was out for 73 off 69 and the two batters just dominated the Sri Lankan bowling unit thoroughly. 

They stitched a partnership of 229 runs for the second wicket as both the batsmen notched up individual tons during the course. While Khan scored 136, Akram remained unbeaten at 135 to help the side post 365/3 in 50 overs. 

Later, Qasim ripped through the Sri Lanka batting unit with a fifer as they were bowled out for 127 in the 35th over of the innings. Vinuja Ranpul top-scored with 53* off 58 for his side.
