Ab de Villliers unleashed a storm that left Pakistani champions stunned and looking for answers in the latest confrontation of the World Championship Legends (WCL) 2025. The South African legend showed Vintage Flair and fearless straw canal and led the pursuit easily, and led his team to an impressive 9-wicket victory and sealed the title in a really dominant way.
Sharjel Khan authorized Pakistan to a formidable total
Pakistan, after he had chosen to hit first, continued their sparkling form with the bat. Opener Sharjel Khan Led the load with a sizzling 76 from just 44 balls, with a solid foundation laid for a large score. The momentum was maintained by Umar amf And Asif Ali, Whose Quickfire Cameeën brought the order through Pakistan to a formidable 195 for 5 in the final.
In response, the Bowling unit of South Africa had moments of sparkle. Hardus Viljoen And Wayne Parnell Were the striking artists, each picked up two wickets and exerted some pressure. However, the rest of the bowlers had difficulty finding their rhythm or answers to Pakistan’s aggressive batting.

In response, after Hashim Amla 18 was rejected by Saeed Ajmal before 18, the Villiers took full leadership over the chase. The Proteas legend played a breathtaking innings and hit an unbeaten 129 runs of only 60 balls, peppered with 12 boundaries and 7 towering sixes. He was well supported by JP Duminy, Who hammered a fast 50 out of 28 balls. Together they haunted the 196-run target with ease and they sealed the victory in just 16.5 overs.
It was a forgetful outing with the ball for Pakistan. Except Ajmal who claimed that the only wicket none of the bowlers had managed a breakthrough. The rest looked no idea and expensive, with Pomeman Raees, Imad Wasim, And Wahab Riaz All leaking runs when South Africa effortlessly pursued the target.
