How rare is a last-wicket win?

Pakistan's victory, chasing 242 and needing 88 with only one wicket left, is incredibly rare in professional cricket. A last-wicket stand of 89 runs to win a game is a historic achievement, showcasing exceptional nerve and skill under immense pressure. It's a testament to Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf's partnership.
