Abdul Razzaq Abu DhabiPakistan pulled off a miraculous one-wicket win with just a ball to spare in the Second Cool & Cool Cup ODI at Abu Dhabi. All-rounder Abdul Razzaq scripted the unlikely victory with a heroic unbeaten 109 from just 72 balls. Coming in at no.7, Razzaq blasted 7 fours and 10 sixes to take Pakistan past the target of 287 despite losing partners at the other end regularly. Only Fawad Alam (48 from 68 balls) provided him any sort of support by adding up 81 runs for the sixth wicket.

For the South Africans, a maiden ODI century from Colin Ingram went in vain. The left handed Colin Ingram getting to bat at no.3 scored 100 from 119 balls (with 10 fours and a six) before getting painfully hit on the toe by a crushing yorker from Wahab Riaz. Hashim Amla with 65 from 62 balls and JP Duminy with 54 from 43 balls also came good for the Proteas.
