Youhana & Elahi demoralise Zimbabwe

Harare Nov. 27 . Pakistan beat Zimbabwe by 48 runs to win the third one-day international here today.

The home team was once more put to the sword by the dazzling Yousuf Youhana and the bludgeoning of Saleem Elahi, who scored very different centuries. Youhana, following on his undefeated 141 and 76 in Bulwayo, flashed to another 100 with a six off the last ball. He needed only 68 balls. He has now scored 317 runs off Zimbabwe during the one-day series. Elahi's 108 came from 119 balls. He was dropped when on 56, but if the catch had been held, it would only have brought Youhana in earlier with perhaps even more dire consequences for Zimbabwe.
