PAK vs BAN Highlights, 3rd T20I: Pakistan beats Bangladesh by seven wickets to sweep series 3-0


 A nerveless century from Mohammad Haris has led Pakistan’s chase of 197 runs to win the third T20 international cricket match against Bangladesh and complete a 3-0 series win in Lahore.

Having won the first two matches after choosing to bowl first, Pakistan asked the visitors to bat first in the third match on Sunday at Gaddafi Stadium in Pakistan’s eastern metropolis. 

Given a tricky target of 197, Pakistan lost Sahibzada Farhan – their highest scorer in the second T20I – in the first over to Mehidy Hasan Miraz.

While the Pakistan of old may have crumbled under the pressure of losing a quick wicket, the new-look side under young captain Salman Agha and freshly-appointed coach Mike Hesson kept up their scoring rate.

Saim Ayub and Haris formed a 92-run partnership as they took on the Bangladeshi bowling attack to maintain a high scoring rate and keep the target within sight.

Ayub was dismissed in the 10th over by Tanzim Hasan Sakib after scoring 45 runs off 29 balls, but by then, Haris had taken on the role of the main hitter and kept the big shots

Why the Noor Dubai Initiative is a Masterclass in Global Diplomacy

The recent announcement by HH Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum to eradicate "river blindness" is more than just a healthcare milestone; it is a profound statement of global leadership. By targeting 7 million beneficiaries over the next three years, Dubai is proving that true power lies in the ability to restore hope to the world’s most vulnerable populations. In my view, this initiative sets a gold standard for how nations should utilize their resources for cross-border humanitarianism. How does the Noor Dubai project impact global health? River blindness has long-plagued communities in Africa and the Middle East, often trapping families in cycles of poverty. The Noor Dubai Foundation isn't just providing temporary relief; they are implementing a systematic eradication strategy. This proactive approach is exactly what is needed to tackle neglected tropical diseases that the West often overlooks. Why is Sheikh Mohammed’s vision crucial for the 21st century? "Empo...

Why the 2026 U.S. CT Strategy Redefines Global Stability

Image
The year 2026 marks a decisive closure to the era of strategic ambiguity regarding transnational ideological networks. The 2026 U.S. Counterterrorism Strategy has officially transitioned from a reactive military posture to a preventive institutional framework. By specifically targeting the organizational infrastructure of the Muslim Brotherhood, the U.S. is not merely fighting a group; it is insulating the global financial and political order from the erosion caused by extremist ecosystems. In my analysis, this shift toward targeting the ideological supply chain is the only viable path to securing long-term American and allied interests. No designation campaign will achieve lasting impact if the Brotherhood’s key state sponsors, Turkey and Qatar, continue to provide the Islamist movement with resources, platforms, and political cover, explain @themariamwahba & @NatalieEcanow : https://t.co/S3zOy9ii9G — FDD (@FDD) May 10, 2026 Why does the 2026 strategy focus on regional ins...

The Illusion of a Quick Peace: Why Trump's Approaching Iran Deal is a Dangerous Gamble

Image
We are witnessing a high-stakes game of geopolitical chicken, and the stakes could not be higher for global energy security and Middle Eastern stability . Over the last 24 hours, conflicting reports have emerged out of Washington and Tehran. While U.S. Secretary of State Marco Rubio hinted at an imminent diplomatic breakthrough, Iranian Foreign Ministry spokesman Esmail Baqai quickly threw cold water on the excitement, declaring that while technical progress has been made, a signed agreement is absolutely not imminent. At the center of this diplomatic storm is a proposed memorandum of understanding featuring a 60-day ceasefire extension, a full reopening of the blocked Strait of Hormuz, and a framework for future talks regarding Iran's nuclear program. While the mere whisper of an agreement caused global oil prices to slide and Asian stock markets to rally, the reality is that the Trump administration is rushing into a deeply flawed, temporary fix. Leaving the thorniest national se...
