Fri Nov 08 13:24:16 UTC 2024: ## Rizwan Equates Record with Six Catches in ODI Against Australia

**Adelaide, Australia:** Pakistan’s wicketkeeper-batsman Mohammad Rizwan has matched the record for most catches in a single ODI match, taking six dismissals during the second ODI against Australia on Friday. This feat puts him alongside cricketing greats like Adam Gilchrist, Mark Boucher, and Jos Buttler, who have also achieved this remarkable feat.

Rizwan was just one catch away from setting a new world record, but unfortunately dropped Adam Zampa. Despite the missed opportunity, his performance played a significant role in Pakistan’s dominant victory.

The Australian batting lineup was demolished by Pakistan’s bowlers, with Haris Rauf leading the charge and claiming his second five-wicket haul in the ODI format. This resulted in a paltry total of 163 runs for Australia in 35 overs.

This win comes after a nail-biting defeat in the first ODI where Pakistan failed to defend a modest total of 204 runs, despite a valiant effort. Australia ultimately secured victory by two wickets.

With this impressive win, Pakistan has evened the series 1-1. The third and final ODI is scheduled to take place on Sunday, where both teams will look to secure the series victory.
