A meme fest erupted after Pakistan won against New Zealand as per DLS method while chasing 402 due to Fakhar Zaman's spectacular innings of 126 from 81 balls, coupled with Babar Azam's stellar performance.
The partnership propelled Pakistan to a hard-fought 21-run victory (DLS method) over New Zealand in the 35th match of the World Cup, held in Bengaluru on Saturday.
As Pakistan's World Cup campaign unfolds, their best-case scenario now hinges on a crucial victory against England, coupled with an element of fortune—hoping that Sri Lanka can pull off a significant upset by defeating New Zealand on November 9 in Bengaluru.
However, the tournament still offers a glimmer of mathematical possibility for Afghanistan to secure 12 points if they manage to win both of their remaining games.
Even the task of winning one out of their two remaining matches, no matter how daunting it may appear, would propel Afghanistan to 10 points. In such a scenario, the fate of Pakistan and Afghanistan's progression would be determined by a net run rate showdown.
The explosive batting display by Fakhar Zaman and the unwavering resilience of Babar Azam had firmly placed Pakistan in a favourable position to clinch victory.
Despite the uncertain future of the Green Shirts in the mega event, memers just enjoyed the latest victory of Pakistan against New Zealand.
