Faisal continued to be instrumental in Malaysia’s attack, setting up another goal for Silverius Shello to successfully net the ball. With a 3-0 lead, Malaysia dominated the game, starting their Asian event’s campaign on a victorious note.
Pakistan’s squad includes Muhammad Umar Bhatta as the captain, along with other talented players like Akmal Hussain, Abdullah Ishtiaq Khan, Muhammad Sufyan Khan, and more, with several standbys on the roster as well.
