BEL vs ROU – T20I 2026 Match Report | Statz

Khaksar’s Death-Over Blitz Lifts Belgium Past Romania in Eight-Run Thriller

Belgium won by 8 runs against Romania in the 107th match of 135 in the T20 International 2026 season, played at the Moara Vlasiei Cricket Ground, Ilfov County, Romania. Belgium won the toss and elected to bat.

Full scorecard on Statz

First Innings – Belgium 184/8 (20 overs)

Belgium’s innings was a story of two halves – a stuttering start followed by a devastating finish. Omid Malik Khel clattered 10 off 5 balls before falling LBW with the score on 11 in the first over. The middle order then wobbled badly, with Belgium slipping to 63/3 after 8.1 overs as both Ali Raza (25 off 16, SR 156) and Aziz Mohammad Babarkrkhail (21 off 26) fell in quick succession.

Omid Rahimi was the anchor Belgium desperately needed. His unbeaten 43 off 33 balls, laced with 5 fours and a six, held the innings together through the middle overs. Muhammad Sheraz Sheikh contributed a handy 24 off 15 (SR 160) before Belgium lost regular wickets through overs 13-17, leaving them at 143/7 after 17.5 overs.

Then Hakim Said Khaksar detonated. His extraordinary 28 off just 9 balls at a strike rate of 311 – featuring 5 fours and a six – added 41 runs in the final 2.1 overs and catapulted Belgium to 184/8. It was a brutal cameo that completely changed the complexion of the match.

For Romania, Janitha Fernando (2/26, Econ 6.5) and Manmeet Koli (2/24, Econ 6) were excellent through the middle overs. Vasu Saini also grabbed 2 wickets but went at 10.5 an over.

Second Innings – Romania 176/9 (20 overs)

Romania’s chase of 185 started poorly when Adrian Lascu fell for 4 in the first over. Vasu Saini (28 off 25) and Ramesh Satheesan (19 off 22) steadied things but never quite got on top of the rate. When Saini departed at 56/2 in the 8th over, Romania needed 129 from 76 balls with the asking rate climbing.

Ariyan Mohammed (1 off 2) and Avishka Iroshan (10 off 7) came and went as Belgium’s bowlers kept the pressure on. Eranga De Silva hit a brisk 15 off 10 before being run out, and Romania were 106/6 after 14.2 overs – needing 79 off 34 balls.

Tharindu Sandaruwan and Janitha Fernando threatened to pull off the impossible. Sandaruwan smashed 31 off just 15 balls (SR 207) with 4 fours and a six, while Fernando compiled a composed 38 off 27 (3 fours, 1 six). Their partnership hauled Romania back into contention, but Sandaruwan was bowled at 165/8 in the 19th over and Fernando fell caught at 167/9 with 18 needed off 9 balls. The tail couldn’t get there.

Belgium’s bowling was a collective effort. Ahmad Khalid Ahmadzai delivered 2/28 from his 4 overs (Econ 7), while Syed Zaki Ul Hassan was the most economical bowler on either side with 1/20 at an economy of 5. Faisal Khaliq (2/41) and Aziz Mohammad Babarkrkhail (2/38) also chipped in with two wickets apiece.

Statz MVP – Janitha Fernando (Romania)

Janitha Fernando takes the Statz MVP award with a match impact rating of 124.47. His double contribution of 38 with the bat and 2/26 with the ball was the standout individual performance of the match – even in a losing cause for Romania.

The Statz match impact formula calculates impact based on match context, weighing contributions against the state of the game when they occurred. Fernando’s economy of 6.5 during Belgium’s middle-overs acceleration and his counter-attacking 38 during the chase both registered as high-impact moments.

The official Man of the Match went to Aziz Mohammad Babarkrkhail for his 21 runs and 2/38 with the ball. The Statz model disagrees – Babarkrkhail’s match impact rating of 60.5 ranks him 7th overall. Fernando’s all-round contribution was significantly more impactful by the numbers.

Turning Point

Hakim Said Khaksar’s 28 off 9 balls in the final 2.1 overs of Belgium’s innings was the decisive moment. Belgium were 143/7 after 17.5 overs – heading for a total around 160 that Romania would have fancied chasing. Khaksar’s assault added over 40 runs to the final total and pushed the target to 185. Romania fell 8 runs short. Without that late blitz, this match almost certainly goes the other way.

Match Context

This was the 107th match of 135 in the T20 International 2026 season. Belgium now lead the head-to-head against Romania 2-0. Neither side holds an ICC T20I ranking. The match was played at Romania’s home ground in Moara Vlasiei – a venue that produced 360 runs across the two innings and 17 wickets, confirming it as a good batting surface with enough in it for the bowlers to stay interested.
