Yusuf Pathan starred with the bat as Johannesburg Buffaloes defeated Durban Qalandars by six wickets to qualify for the final of the 2023 Zim Afro T10 tournament.

Chasing 141 to win, Johannesburg Buffaloes were struggling at 25/2 when Yusuf arrived in the middle. Amid the pressure situation, Pathan slammed 80 not out off just 26 balls to take his team over the line with one delivery to spare.

His whirlwind knock was studded with 4 fours and 9 sixes. The highlight of Yusuf’s knock was his onslaught on former Pakistan pacer Mohammad Amir in the eighth over of Johannesburg’s innings.

Yusuf smashed Amir for 24 runs in that over. He began the over with two consecutive sixes before playing a dot ball. The fourth delivery was also dispatched for a maximum followed by a double and a boundary.

Amir also bowled a wide and, thus, he ended up conceding 25 runs in that over. In his two overs, the left-arm quick gave away 42 runs without claiming a wicket.
