Chasing 242, Pakistan fell to 154-9 before Shadab Khan and Haris Rauf added an unbeaten 89, a record last-wicket partnership to win an ODI. Andrea Kimi Antonelli started on pole and won the United States Grand Prix, with Ferrari's Charles Leclerc second and Red Bull's Max Verstappen third. Khadija Shaw put Manchester City ahead with a little over 20 minutes remaining, but inadvertently set up Elisabeth Terland's equaliser in the last minute of normal time. Aaron Rodgers threw his 540th career touchdown pass to move ahead of Peyton Manning into third place as Pittsburgh beat New Orleans 16-10.
