NEW DELHI: As Pakistan beat Afghanistan in an ill-tempered thriller by one wicket in Hambantota on Thursday to seal three-match ODI series, pacer Hasan Ali‘s insane prediction moments before the tense finish turned out to be a perfect one.
Hasan on X (formally known as Twitter) had predicted that Pakistan will finish the game with a four off the edge and things turned exactly the same way when Naseem Shah collected a boundary off Fazalhaq Farooq to seal the win for his side in a final-over tense finish.
“I can smell it will be edge for 4 runs and we will win,” Hasan wrote on X, moments before the final over.
