Pakistan however have received a massive blow in form of injury of their ace pace bowler Shaheen Shah Afridi who has been ruled out due to an injury. He has already missed the first 2 games of the series and won't feature in the third match as well. Pakistan could have still survived in this series vs Netherlands but what matters is Asia Cup 2022 where Shaheen won't be available and it could affect team's chances in the tournment.
