England Shock Pakistan! Shoaib Akhtar Shines With 4 Wickets | Pakistan's Unexpected Collapse

Date: April 12, 1999 | Venue: Sharjah (Day/Night) Toss: England | Result: England won by 62 runs Man of the Match: Mark Ealham Despite scoring a modest 206, thanks to a career-best 4/37 from Shoaib Akhtar, England pulled off a stunning win over Pakistan in the Coca-Cola Cup. Graham Thorpe (second consecutive fifty) and Mark Ealham (36 runs & 4 wickets) starred with the bat and ball. Pakistan, already qualified for the final, looked completely disinterested and were bowled out cheaply, falling 62 runs short with almost 10 overs to spare. Their poor effort led to renewed match-fixing allegations, famously voiced by former teammate Rashid Latif. 🏏 Highlights: Shoaib Akhtar’s 4-wicket haul Thorpe’s comeback form Mark Ealham’s all-round brilliance Pakistan's unexpected collapse at Sharjah Controversial post-match allegations 🔔 Subscribe for rare and classic ODI moments from the 90s! #ENGvsPAK #CricketMax #ShoaibAkhtar #Highlights
