Pakistan wicket-keeper batter Mohammad Rizwan’s supreme form saved his team a lot of embarrassment in the ongoing fifth T20I against England in Lahore.
A below par batting performance after being put in to bat first by England captain Moeen Ali resulted in the hosts getting bundled out for 145 in 19 overs. Having lost wickets at regular intervals, Pakistan couldn’t even manage to last for 20 overs.
Had it not been for Rizwan scoring 63 (46) with the help of two fours and three sixes at a strike rate of 136.95, Pakistan would’ve struggled to put on board a competitive total.
Rizwan, who was the penultimate Pakistani batter to get out at the Gaddafi Stadium tonight, scored his 20th T20I half-century, 19th under captain and opening partner Babar Azam (9), 13th in Asia, seventh at home and in 2022 and sixth against England.

Rizwan, who continues to face wrath of critics for his strike rate, had been phenomenally consistent when it comes to run-scoring in the shortest format before ICC T20 World Cup 2022. The world event, however, hasn’t allowed to Rizwan to bring his A-game to the table.

In his last 10 T20 innings, Rizwan has scored 294 runs at an average of 29.40 and a strike rate of 112.21 which includes two half-centuries. Rizwan’s current form has dipped for the first time in a while to the extent that he is no longer the highest T20I run-scorer in this period.

Expected to do the heavy lifting for this team in the ongoing T20 World Cup, Rizwan finally stood tall on his potential by scoring a vital half-century in the first semi-final against New Zealand in Adelaide. However, the right-handed batter was dismissed for 15 (14) in the final against England at the Melbourne Cricket Ground tonight.
