Pakistan’s dramatic escape against England was not short of tension, and the final moments produced another talking point as Haris Rauf and Will Jacks were seen exchanging words during a gripping ODI tri-series encounter in Lahore. The Pakistan fast bowler and England all-rounder had a heated exchange during the closing stages of the chase at Gaddafi Stadium on Sunday. The incident unfolded when Pakistan were down to their final wicket, with Shadab Khan and Rauf attempting to complete a remarkable turnaround.

Shadab’s Century Powers Pakistan’s Comeback
The confrontation came at the end of a remarkable rescue act by Shadab, whose unbeaten 113 off 96 deliveries kept Pakistan in contention after the hosts had lost nine wickets.
His unbroken partnership of 89 runs with Rauf carried Pakistan to 243/9 in 47.1 overs, completing a chase that had appeared to be slipping away. Rauf’s decisive boundary ensured the hosts secured a one-wicket win.
England had earlier posted 241 in 46.4 overs, with Ben Duckett top-scoring with 105 and Sam Curran contributing 42. Shaheen Shah Afridi claimed four wickets for Pakistan to help restrict England’s total.
While Shadab’s century and Pakistan’s last-wicket stand defined the result, the exchanges between Rauf and Jacks added another layer of drama to an already tense finish.
