By IANS News February 07, 2026 • 16:24 PM View: 288

T20 World Cup: Pakistan limped to a three-wicket win over the Netherlands in the ICC Men's T20 World Cup opener on Saturday here at the Singhalese Cricket Club.

Consistent quality efforts in the field allowed Pakistan to restrict the Netherlands to 147 all out with a ball to spare. Captain Scott Edwards top-scored for the Dutch, making 37 off 29 to ensure his side had something to defend.

In the chase, Saim Ayub and Sahibzada Farhan gave a stellar start to Pakistan with their attacking strokeplay. However, the Dutch struck back in the middle overs, picking three wickets across two overs.
