Asif Ali’s late blitz led Pakistan to a victory against Afghanistan, placing his team on the brink of a T20 World Cup 2021 semi-final place.
Ali hit a knock of 25 in just 7 balls to finish the game. He smashed four sixes of Karim Janat’s 19th over, ensuring the two points for the Men in Green with six balls to spare.

I had seen Asif Ali a few times before and thought he was a powerful batsman. But this level of hitting is insane.

Asif Ali showed lot of confidence by refusing single on the last ball and finishing it in style by hitting those four big 6 in the next over .. clean and powerful hitter

Asif Ali extremely impressive under pressure. Well played Pakistan
Heart goes out to Afghanistan though. Brilliantly fought till the end.
Seeing Afghanistan tonight, I wouldn’t call #IndvNZ a virtual knockout, this group is more open that you’d think. #AFGvPAK #T20WorldCup21— Wasim Jaffer (@WasimJaffer14) October 29, 2021
This #AsifAli has got some hitting ability. Well tried Afghanistan team. #PakvsAfg
