<h1>Pakistan Get First Points - Wahab, Irfan</h1>
Wahab Riaz hit a contentious 54 with the bat to give Pakistan an aggregate that it could safeguard, and afterward joined with Mohammad Irfan (4 for 30) to leave Zimbabwe as Misbah-ul-Haq's group got its ICC Cricket World Cup 2015 crusade off the ground with a 20-run triumph at the Gabba in Brisbane on Sunday (March 1). Misbah's 120-ball 73 had held the innings together, and the bowlers were adequate to get the outcome.
For long stretches with ball and bat, Zimbabwe had controlled the diversion, however a blend of flawed shot choice and outstanding playing in the Batting Power Play from Wahab and Irfan tilted the amusement unequivocally to support Pakistan.
Guarding only 235, new-ball wickets were basic, and Irfan properly given them on a quick and bouncy pitch impeccably suited to his techniques. The steepling ricochet he got represented both Chamu Chibhabha and Sikandar Raza, one not able to get his bat off the beaten path and the other not able to control a cut. Haris Sohail brought both chances no sweat at second slip, leaving Zimbabwe 22 for 2 in the seventh over.
Brendan Taylor and Hamilton Masakadza dragged Zimbabwe go into the challenge with a 52-run stand. Taylor played some flawless drives and a surprising incline shot over the 'manager off Wahab, while Masakadza built the ball around. Requiring wickets, Misbah at the end of the day turned to Irfan.
It took him only two balls to strike, as Masakadza miscued a space to mid-off, where Misbah viewed a steepler the distance down into his hands. Sean Williams began fluidly, with two fours in an Irfan over, but at the same time was given a respite when an endeavored chop off Afridi was put down behind the stumps with the batsman on 11.
