In the match against Turkiye, outside hitter Saud was the top scorer for Pakistan with 16 points, and team captain Muhammad Yahya contributed another 13 points. The progression of Pakistan in their matches showed a total domination in every aspect, including attack points, blocks, digs, and service.

Pakistan now emerges as one of the top teams in Pool A, and they are gaining momentum. Pakistan will play either Argentina or Puerto Rico, and both matches will put the team’s unbeaten streak to the test. If the team can win 1 of those matches, it will almost guarantee a spot in the knockout rounds, a tremendous achievement given this is Pakistan’s first event at this level.

Pakistan’s unity, discipline, and buoyancy have volleyball fans around the world talking.
