Witness Mohsin Khan’s stylish 59-run knock off 56 deliveries in the opening ODI between Pakistan and Sri Lanka at Kandy on March 2, 1986 (ODI #365). In a rain-curtailed match reduced to 23 overs per side, Mohsin Khan opened the innings with class and confidence, smashing 7 boundaries and a towering six.
With solid support from Mudassar Nazar (41 runs), Mohsin laid the perfect foundation for Pakistan’s successful chase of 125. The duo’s opening partnership ensured Pakistan wrapped up the game in just 21.3 overs, winning by 8 wickets and setting the tone for the series.
This knock earned Mohsin Khan the Player of the Match award, and it remains one of the standout performances in his ODI career. Known for his elegance and timing, Mohsin’s innings was a treat for cricket purists.
