Mohammad Haris' unbeaten century helped Pakistan storm to a seven-wicket victory over Bangladesh to complete a clean sweep in their T20I series.
BAN Vs PAK 3rd T20I: Mohammad Haris바카라™ Century Powers Pakistan To Series Whitewash In Lahore
The 393 runs scored between Pakistan and Bangladesh on Sunday is the highest match aggregate involving the two sides in T20Is
Pakistan had already wrapped up the three-match series, but had to chase their 197 target on Sunday, getting over the line with 16 balls to spare.
Bangladesh started strong, with Tanzid Hasan (42) and Parvez Hossain Emon (66) putting together a 110 first-wicket partnership before the former was caught by Abrar Ahmed.
Litton Das added a further 22 before being bowled out by Hasan Ali (2-38), before Shamim Hossain (eight) and Towhid Hridoy (25) fell in quick succession in the 18th over.
Jaker Ali's unbeaten 15 helped them reach 196-6 and, though Sahibzada Farham (one) fell inside the first over, Pakistan hitting their target never looked in doubt.
Farham's dismissal opened the door for Harris, who scored 107 off 46 balls, with eight fours and seven sixes in his knock.
Saim Ayub chipped in with 45 before being caught in the 10th over, and though Hassan Nawaz was taken by Mehidy Hasan Miraz (2-26) shortly after, the damage was already done, with Salman Ali Agha (15 not out) getting the winning run to take them to 197-3.
Data Debrief: Haris steals the show
The 393 runs scored between Pakistan and Bangladesh on Sunday is the highest match aggregate involving the two sides in T20Is.
And Haris was a big part of that with his impressive knock as he stormed to a maiden T20 century. In fact, his unbeaten 107 is his highest-ever score in the format (17 matches played).
It was also the second-fastest century scored by a player for Pakistan in T20Is, reaching 100 off 45 balls, just one more than Hasan Nawaz took against New Zealand earlier this year.
