India Dominant throughout

India put up a dominant performance, with a well-balanced batting and bowling attack. They posted a challenging total of 200 runs, thanks to half-centuries from Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli. Pakistan's bowlers struggled to contain India's aggressive batting, with Shaheen Shah Afridi being the only successful wicket-taker.

In the run chase, Pakistan made a valiant effort, but fell short by 28 runs. Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan provided a solid start, but the middle-order failed to capitalize. India's bowlers, led by Jasprit Bumrah and Mohammed Shami, kept Pakistan under constant pressure, making regular breakthroughs.

This victory marks India's first win against Pakistan in a T20 World Cup match since 2007. It also strengthens their position in Group A and bolsters their chances of qualifying for the semi-finals.
