Pakistan defeated Nepal by 238 runs in their Asia Cup 2023 opener at the Multan Cricket Stadium on Wednesday (August 30). While Pakistan batted first and posted a formidable 342/6, thanks to hundreds from Iftikhar Ahmed (109* off 71), Babar Azam (151 off 131), they wrapped up the Nepal batting line up for 104 to wrap up a comprehensive victory. Shadab Khan’s 4/27 were the stand out bowling figures for the winning team.

While Pakistan won the toss and elected to bat first, their batting did not get off to a desired start as they lost both their openers early.
