Electing to bowl first, Pakistan restricted India to 151/7 in 20 overs with Shaheen Shah Afridi rattling the 2007 champions with a two-wicket burst. India captain Virat Kohli struck a fighting fifty but India never recovered from the early setback and could not manage a big score.
It was a night where nothing went wrong for Pakistan. Chasing 151, Pakistan got off to an impressive start with 43 runs for no loss in power-play. Rizwan began by carting Bhuvneshwar Kumar for back-to-back boundaries in the opening over. In the next over, Azam started off with a glorious back-foot drive off Mohammed Shami. Shami came under attack in the fifth over as Azam and Rizwan took a four each.
This was also Pakistan’s first T20I win by 10 wickets over any opposition and the highest opening stand against India in the format. The loss is not only India’s first at a World Cup to Pakistan, but is also their first-ever 10-wicket defeat in T20 internationals.
