It was really impressive to watch.
Like a lot of people, I found it very striking that that's his first T20 International 100, but it is.
And I feel like it won't be the last.
I think Pakistan will look at this match and think we did a lot of things right in this game.
Yeah, not ideal to lose those early wickets, but they managed to steady the ship.
They actually managed to accelerate reasonably well.
A couple of players got out trying to go big towards the end, but that's going to happen because you're trying to play high-risk cricket to try and get yourself a few extra runs.
I think 164...
wasn't a bad score on this pitch.
Even Liam Dawson alluded to that in his interview.
The win predictor was in Pakistan's favour.
57%, in fact, of 43.
So it was a good total on this pitch, I think.
There were moments where...
Maybe they took their foot off the throttle a little bit.
They started so well in that power play.
Shaheen Afridi looking like himself again, at least briefly picked up four wickets today.
That's a huge plus for Pakistan to have their strike seamer back in form.
As you say, their fate does now lie in other hands, but it's loads of hands.
It's not just one sequence.
