PLAYER OF THE MATCH SHAHID KHAN AFRIDI
After Pakistan won the toss, the pace pairing of Henry Osinde and Baidwan broke through their top order with ease, dismissing Mohammad Hafeez (11) and Ahmed Shehzad (12) respectively before Baidwan trapped Younus Khan lbw for six. Canada's constant pressure resulted in four quick wickets to end Pakistan's innings with seven overs left.
Pakistan have bowled out Canada for 138. The bowling effort was simply excellent defending a small target of 185. Captain Shahid Afridi led from the front taking 5/23 in his 10 overs. With that, he also became the only bowler to take four-for three consecutive times in all World Cups. For Canada, the top scorer was Jimmy Hansra with 43 runs. They were very slow in their chasing and let Pakistan bowlers attack them through out.
