The Netherlands nearly pulled ‌off a major upset before Faheem Ashraf’s breezy cameo secured a nervy three-wicket win for Pakistan in their Group A match at the Twenty20 World Cup.

Put in to bat on Saturday, the Dutch side were bowled out for 147 with one delivery left in their innings in Colombo’s Sinhalese Sports Club ground.
