Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf made history, putting together 89 in 80 balls to drag Pakistan to victory from a position of complete hopelessness against England in Lahore on Sunday night. Here are the statistical highlights from the game.
89 - The unbeaten tenth-wicket partnership between Shadab and Rauf against England, the highest in a successful ODI chase, surpassing the previous record of 64 not out between Deryck Murray and Andy Roberts for West Indies against Pakistan in the 1975 World Cup.
Shadab and Rauf's unbeaten 89-run stand is also the second-highest in a successful List A chase, behind the 102* by North West's Thando Bula and Friedel de Wet against Free State in South Africa's provincial cup in 2006.
113* - Shadab's score while batting at No. 8 on Sunday, which is the highest by any batter at No. 8 or lower in ODI cricket. Two others have scored centuries from No. 8: Ireland's Simi Singh against South Africa in 2021 and Bangladesh's Mehidy Hasan Miraz against India in 2022.
Six batters have scored more than Shadab's 113* while batting at No. 8 or lower in List A cricket. However, it is the joint-highest among Pakistani batters. Shahid Iqbal also made 113* for Karachi Whites in the 1999 Tissot Cup.

46.5% - Shadab's contribution to Pakistan's total of 243. It is the second-highest by a batter from No. 8 or lower to an ODI total of 100-plus runs. The highest is 46.88% by Chamika Karunaratne, who made 75 in Sri Lanka's 160 all out against Australia in 2022.
Shadab scored 80.71% of the team's runs - 113 of 140 - while at the crease and 91.01% of the 89 runs for the final wicket, with Rauf finishing on 7 not out in 19 balls. Shadab scored 68 of the first 69 runs of the partnership.
112 - Runs Pakistan added after the fall of the eighth wicket, with Shadab alone scoring 100. Only one team has added more runs for the last two wickets in a successful ODI chase: Sri Lanka, 136 against Australia at the MCG in 2010.
2 - Shadab and Rauf finished with the second-highest tenth-wicket partnership for Pakistan in ODIs, behind the 103 between Mohammad Amir and Saeed Ajmal against New Zealand in Abu Dhabi in 2009. It is also the second-highest partnership for the tenth wicket by any team against England.
There are only three final-wicket partnerships that have yielded more runs: Michael Holding and Vivian Richards hold the record with 106 unbeaten runs against England in 1984, Mohammad Amir and Saeed Ajmal added 103 against New Zealand in 2009, and Kemar Roach and Ravi Rampaul scored an unbroken 99 against India in 2011.
Adding England's 40-run tenth-wicket stand, the two tenth-wicket stands on Sunday amounted to 129 runs, a new ODI record. The previous highest was 103 set by Pakistan and New Zealand in 2009.
2 - Previous instances of England losing back-to-back in men's ODIs by a margin of two or fewer wickets. Those losses took place in 1996 and 2003. Here, England lost to Sri Lanka by two wickets and to Pakistan by one wicket. Five other teams have suffered such defeats in successive matches, with India the most recent. They too suffered a two-wicket defeat to Sri Lanka, followed by a one-wicket loss to Pakistan in the Asia Cup in 2014.
1 - Sunday's win was Pakistan's first one-wicket win against England in men's ODIs. This was their ninth ODI win by a wicket, while England have now lost six by such a margin.
3966 - Balls Shaheen Shah Afridi took to pick up 150 ODI wickets, making him the second-fastest to the mark. Another left-arm quick, Mitchell Starc, needed only 3857 balls. Sunday's ODI was Afridi's 80th, making him the joint-fourth-fastest in terms of matches to 150 wickets, and second-fastest among Pakistan bowlers.
2 - Hundreds for Ben Duckett in Pakistan. He is the first England batter with multiple ODI hundreds in the country. Both of them have come in Lahore, and both ended in defeats. He previously scored 165 against Australia in last year's Champions Trophy.
Duckett now has five ODI hundreds, but only one in a win, against India at Lord's earlier this year. Three of the other four ended in defeats, while one was in a washout. Among men with five or more hundreds, only Harry Tector (all five in defeats) and Brendan Taylor (only two of 11 in wins) have had worse luck.
