Pakistan v Ireland - #BendTheRules Moments

The innings which Sarfraz Ahmed played against Ireland, on Sunday, steered Pakistan into the Quarter-finals, by comfortably beating their Irish opponents by seven wickets in Adelaide.

Sarfraz scored his maiden ODI ton from 120 balls and he, along with partner Ahmed Shehzad, insured that Pakistan didn't lose an early wicket while chasing a modest 238 in their last Group match.

The duo added 120 runs for the first wicket, before Shehzad fell in the 23rd over for 63. Sarfraz crossed his fifty from 52 balls and then patiently took his side closer to the target, while wickets fell at the other end.

He finally got his maiden ton in the 46th over, before Umar Akmal added the finishing touches to put Pakistan through to the knock-out stage, where they will play Australia on March 20. Sarfraz' match-winning effort qualifies for the #BendTheRules Moments of the day.
