Hamza Zahoor aimed for 50 against India—then celebrated a match-winning century

Hamza Zahoor set himself a target of a half-century before facing India, but went on to score a match-winning hundred. He marked the innings with a paper celebration after writing down his ambition before the match.

Zahoor’s handwritten message read: “Tomorrow match 50 inshallah”. His century took him beyond the 50 he had hoped for, turning the pre-match note into a celebration of a winning performance.

It could not be independently confirmed when or where Zahoor played the match against India.
