India (175/7) dominate Pakistan (114) with a commanding 61-run victory in an anti-climactic T20 World Cup 2026 clash

[Wasim Ghulam]

garbage bowling. Said before the game that he should be replaced with Naseem

Naseem is garbage too

This line up is sense less

Faheem's Role does nt exist. we have played 3 games he has nt bowled an over. He plays as bowling all rounder

Shadab goes for runs in first over , he is protected and does nt come back to bowl

our batters are doing job of bowlers

 

[Red-Indian]

Hardik's overs will be key. I trust Bumrah to find a way even in these spin friendly conditions

 

[RidiculousMan]

It's difficult. But InShaAllah Pakistan will chase this. History will be written with Green Ink!

Lets go Pakistan!

 

[Asad T]

Ishan 77 (40)
Rest of India 99 (80)

 

[Asif321]

I’m sensing a bad collapse

 

[Champ_Pal]

176 should be ok if its doesn't slow much. Openers / top 3 will be crucial for pak

India only have 2 spin options.

Axar is a darter. will not work on this pitch. The rest are part timers.

 

[amvbfm]

Need the two openers to at least score as many as Ishan did in equal time for Pakistan to have a chance given our useless middle order.

 

[t_kaay]

Abrars leg side buffet bowling cost us

 

[castortroy]

Pak have no clue again Hardik

 

[Red-Indian]

Tilak plays with the mindset of playing till the end, and that's very dangerous for the position he is batting at. Needs to be in the moment to excel, like Abhishek and Ishan. Or he will end up Babar-like in this format.

Agreed. Even Anchors have to be able to attack from the go when the situation demands it nowadays.

 

[JattMaula]

Both Cricviz and cricinfo giving it 68:32 to India

Those predictors don't know that pitch is turning and stopping much more than usual. They are based on historical data.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Too much wrist slitting from Pak fans.

 

[Pakistan150-0]

Abrarnes Khanes luga naar

Seems more naturally suited to ODI. I know he has played some high SR innings in T20I too but considering the competition for spots in the Indian team they might be able to find someone better

 

[Asif321]

Padya will get Saim like he has

 

[10sion]

Agha should have given Faheem to bowl. This pitch would suit his bowling. Watch Dube and Hardik show how its done.

 

[emranabbas]

Here we need rizwan abd babar innings just 2 fours every over

 

[Bhaijaan]

India scored 98 runs from 13.2 overs excluding Ishan Kishan’s knock.

 

[CricVet]

The retarded/corrupt PCB is solely responsible for the passengers in the game.

We all knew that Showoffridi is cooked. Now, he is Well-done and charred, but the dumb selection continues.

Shadab and Abrar bowled pretty much useless outside off/leg deliveries and paid the price. If not for Usman T and Saim's intelligent bowling, this game would be far more embarrassing for Pak fans.

Now, let's see how the biggest passenger of the T20 cricket embarrasses Pak fans. PCB does not get embarrass since they have always been shameless.

 

[chakdeindian]

SKY should bowl one or two overs if fast bowling doesn't click..he have already practiced Usman Tariq type deliveries

 

[Hikaru]

I hope Bumrah watched that Shahibzada ad and took it personally.

 

[Kianig89]

Time for Sahibzada and Saim to give a Gaylestorm

 

[Bhaijaan]

Sahebzada Farhan is the big wicket.
Also Saim Ayub

 

[RidiculousMan]

Seems more naturally suited to ODI. I know he has played some high SR innings in T20I too but considering the competition for spots in the Indian team they might be able to find someone better

He definitely plays the more anchor role.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Without Ishan we would have struggled to go past 140.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Too much wrist slitting from Pak fans.

This will be a one sided mauling

 

[batandballbattle]

opening with hardik, interesting

 

[Hikaru]

Farhan bhai will play 10 dots, then tonk a six and act like Viv Richards.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Naseem is garbage too

would have done better than Shaheen.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Watchful start from Son of Sahib.

 

[Geordie Ahmed]

3 dots to start off, not exactly the start we needed

 

[Justcrazy]

Pandya does not have pace , but keeps it accurate. You have to take chances to score against him

 

[Bhaijaan]

Sahebzada playing himself in.

He knows he’s a game changer

 

[castortroy]

Told you they have no idea against Hardik

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

Farhan gone

 

[rickroll]

Man, kids messed with the alarm and I just woke up missing first half. At least I'm not missing Pakistan batting.

Chalo, let's break that 152/0 and make it 176/0 and silence 1.4 Billion people.

 

[Hawkeye]

This is a winning total on this pitch.

Pak will need to have a freak batting performance to overcome this.

 

[Hikaru]

Noo ..I wanted Bumrah to get this guy

 

[imshally81]

Out

 

[Champ_Pal]

Son of Sahib gone. A nothing shot.

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

This will be a one sided mauling

Pak ain't crossing 140 from the looks of the pitch & the bowling attack.

 

[boomboomcheema]

What a great start.

 

[prash88]

Farhan

 

[jnaveen1980]

One down

 

[Justcrazy]

O U T

Pandya as usual strikes and in the very first over required rate jumps.

 

[Devadwal]

Farhan Gone . Shabash Pandya

 

[Major]

Farhan gone, game over.

 

[Energy]

Dot, dot, slog- batting.
Slot balls- bowling.

That's Pakistani formula for haleem.

 

[Savak]

Farhan I am sorry is not international quality

 

[10sion]

Agha should have given Faheem to bowl. This pitch would suit his bowling. Watch Dube and Hardik show how its done.

Yes. Exactly. Wisdom chases Pakistan but they always manage to run faster.

 

[Hawkeye]

As expected Farhan will fail against all decent teams.

 

[Zeshan547]

Hardik Always bowl well vs Pak because we suck so badly vs short pitch bowling even on this kind of slow pitch.

 

[big_gamer007]

I have a feeling this is Bobbys game today, he gonna play a blinder. 60* (90) balls type match winning innings.

 

[batandballbattle]

mirroring abishek with 0 (4)

 

[globetrotter]

Farhan out ..... Pakistan 0/1

 

[Hikaru]

Man, kids messed with the alarm and I just woke up missing first half. At least I'm not missing Pakistan batting.

Chalo, let's break that 152/0 and make it 176/0 and silence 1.4 Billion people.

Wapis so jao bhai

 

[jnaveen1980]

This is not an easy pitch to play shot. Ball sticks in the surface.

 

[Bhaijaan]

OUT

Big man Sahebzada falls for a

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

@Kianig89 @gazza619

 

[Inswinging Yorker]

PAKISTAN ALREATY CHOKING AS EXPECTED..WHAT A LAME SHOT

 

[gibsyhesperis]

Well, that was pretty brainless….

 

[Devadwal]

Time for Sahibzada and Saim to give a Gaylestorm

 

[Wasim Ghulam]

would have done better than Shaheen.

it does nt matter

we cant play and expect to win against world beaters like india with 11 all over the place

It seems we just get into ground and pray that things happen in our favor. there is no pre game strategy or back up plans if things go awry

 

[Asif321]

Hahahha so much of Farhan

 

[AAli98]

Just cross 36

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Saim, Agha crucial for pak now

 

[castortroy]

How do India always get the swing going when they play pak

 

[Champ_Pal]

Pandu bowling like prime Wasim.

 

[Amjid Javed]

This poor batting line up picked will be exposed here. Opening with a clueless hack like farhan was always ending in failure

 

[Aviator]

Justice for sahibzada, please!

 

[Bhaijaan]

Strike pacer Pandya making his presence count

He’s moving the ball brother. Getting that movement

 

[jnaveen1980]

Wasn't this pitch where Muzarbanni wreaked havoc

 

[Hikaru]

Pandaya even as a bowler is Siraj level I must say.

 

[boomboomcheema]

Compare the bowling of All-Rounder Pandya with Shaheen the Blind Horse who just runs in to get smashed.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Wicket Maiden for Pandu sahib.

 

[Savak]

Pandya looking so much better and more threatening with the ball than our overrated Shaheen who is still living off the 2021 T20 WC game

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Wicket maiden to start off lol

 

[globetrotter]

What a start by Hardik..... good man go

 

[Bhaijaan]

This poor batting line up picked will be exposed here. Opening with a clueless hack like farhan was always ending in failure

Babar has to play the inning of his life.

 

[jnaveen1980]

So match has become a 19 over affair due to maiden with 1 down
