Mohammad Rizwan scored his maiden T20I century for the Men In Green as he hit 104 for 64 balls during the ongoing first T20I match against South Africa at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium.

Mohammad Rizwan was on song despite losing wickets at the other end after regular intervals. His magnificent knock included six boundaries and seven towering sixes.

However, South Africa need 170 runs to win against Pakistan at in the first T20I fixture of the three-match series.

Pakistan suffered a collapse after losing an early wicket of skipper Babar Azam who got run-out in the first over. Haider Ali was caught in the sixth over when Pakistan was 37-1. He scored 21 off 16 balls with the help of three sixes.

Pakistan scored 43-2 in the powerplay with Rizwan and Hussain Talat at the crease.

Thereafter, Rizwan didn’t look back and kept the scoreboard ticking. On the last ball of the 11th over, he raised the bat for scoring maiden T20I fifty but his mood looked different.

He helped Pakistan score 22 runs in the last two overs to set a 170-run target for South Africa.

However, soon after Rizwan’s magnificent innings, the Twitter flooded with heaps of praise for the batsman.
