Pakistan’s wicket-keeper batsman Mohammad Rizwan has received praise from fans and experts alike for his remarkable knock during the Green Shirts’ second outing of the ongoing World Cup 2023 after the top order batter displayed incredible courage “fighting” his way through cramps to score a much-needed century for the Men in Green.

Coming at number four after Pakistan suffered early blows as skipper Babar Azam and Imam-ul-Haq departed early, Rizwan anchored the innings with an unbeaten 176-run partnership with Abdullah Shafique.

Rizwan — who fought his way through cramps for his ton — has received praise and recognition from netizens who have been left in awe of the wicketkeeper’s resilience and grit.
