Pacer Shaheen Shah got Pakistan off to a good start as skipper Babar Azam chose to field first. He caught India’s vice-captain, Rohit Sharma, for a golden duck and rocked KL Rahul’s stumps in his next over, with India behind at 6/2.

After early losses, Indian captain Virat Kohli and Suryakumar Yadav (11) attempted to get India’s innings back on track in the powerplay, but Hasan Ali struck in his first over to reduce India to 36/3 in six overs.

As India recovered well after the powerplay, Kohli and the aggressive Risabh Pant put on a 53-run partnership. Pant dominated briefly, belting two sixes off Hasan, but leg-spinner Shadab Khan sent him as he attempted to accelerate. He was eliminated after scoring a well-executed 30-ball 39.
After Pant’s dismissal, Pakistan kept Kohli quiet and things were under control.
Ravindra Jadeja only achieved 13 runs per ball, while Kohli scored fifty. Shaheen dismissed him for 57 in the 19th over. In 49 balls, the Indian skipper struck five fours and a six.

After some sloppy fielding by Pakistan in the last two overs, India pushed the total above 150. Shaheen finished with 3 for 31 while Hasan gave 44 runs in four overs for his two wickets. Haris Rauf performed admirably in the last overs, finishing with figures of 1/25.

In response, wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan and Babar batted brilliantly right from the outset. The duo overpowered the opposition with excellent stroke-play and easily led the run-chase.

Babar scored his fifty with a six against Varun Chakravarthy, while Rizwan hit the half-century with a four off Jasprit Bumrah. Mohammad Shami bowled the 18th over, which resulted in the score being chased down.
