Pakistan defeated New Zealand by 66 runs in the final ODI at Lahore (2002), securing yet another win over the Kiwis. But the biggest talking point of the match was Shoaib Akhtar supposedly breaking the 100mph barrier, clocking 161 kph (100.04 mph) on a sponsor’s speed gun. However, with the TV speed gun not working and ICC dismissing the record as unofficial, the claim remained controversial. While Shoaib Akhtar made headlines for his speed, Shoaib Malik stole the show with a career-best all-round performance. Malik smashed 115 off 142 balls (12 fours), his highest international score. He shared a 93-run partnership with Yousuf Youhana (53 off 51 balls) to push Pakistan to a strong total. With the ball, Malik took 3/37, his career-best bowling figures, as New Zealand crumbled to their seventh successive ODI defeat against Pakistan. A unique subplot to the game: Two days before the match, Shoaib Malik got married via telephone! His wife was in Saudi Arabia, and they had met during the ARY Gold Cup at Sharjah in 2001. 📌 Key Highlights: ✅ Shoaib Malik’s maiden international century (115 off 142 balls) ✅ Yousuf Youhana’s quickfire 53 off 51 balls ✅ Shoaib Akhtar’s 161 kph (100 mph) controversy ✅ Malik’s career-best bowling figures (3/37) ✅ New Zealand suffered their 7th consecutive ODI loss to Pakistan ✅ Shoaib Malik’s wedding conducted over the phone! 🏆 Man of the Match: Shoaib Malik 🔔 Like, Comment & Subscribe for more classic ODI moments! #PakistanVsNewZealand #CricketMax #Highlights
