Colombo: The Afghan bowler ‘run out’ Pakistan batsman Shatab Khan, who had left the crease at the non-strikers’ end before Pantheri. The incident happened in the last over of Pakistan-Afghanistan 2nd ODI while Pakistan were batting. Fazlhaq Farooqui cleverly used the opportunity to dismiss Shatab Khan while bowling the first ball. Chasing a target of 301 runs, Pakistan needed 11 runs to win in the last over.

Shatab Khan’s feat was while bowling the first ball of the 50th over. After the Pakistani left the crease, Farooqui ran him out without bowling. He stayed on the ground for a while in doubt, but when the umpires called him out, the player returned disappointed. Shatab Khan faced 35 balls and got out with 48 runs.

Prior to Pantheri, the method of dismissing a batter if he leaves the crease at the non-strikers end was known as ‘Mankading’ in cricket. This too is considered a normal run-out by the ICC, which recognizes such dismissals. Despite missing the half century, Shatab Khan is the man of the match.

Afghanistan surrendered following shaking Pakistan in the match. Batting first, Afghanistan scored 300 runs for the loss of five wickets. Opener Rahmanullah Gurbaz scored a century and led Afghanistan to a huge score. The player faced 151 balls and got out following scoring 151 runs. Ibrahim Sadran (80 off 101 balls) scored a half-century. Pakistan won by nine wickets with one ball to spare in the reply.
