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

[Human786]

Usman on fire ... 43/4

 

[chinaman00]

Required one rate is now 9.47

With Fakhar Zaman and Faheem Ashraf yet to come, Pakistan has not entirely lost it

Fakhar?

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Is it just me or is the production of this match especially the audio output horrible?

I am barely able to hear any commentary at all - the sound of that very loud DJ is drowning out the actual commentary.

the sound quality is very bad. On Prime most of the time video is out of of sync with audio. Looks like some technical issue with broadcaster.

 

[Devadwal]

Usman is batting well

 

[ameer219]

There is nothing special about Pandya. Yet they choose to play cross batted shots on a pitch that is stopping.

And many many times again Bumrah always follows up with a yorker.

Embarassing.

 

[Zeshan547]

This game can really be blessing in disguise if our think tank can actually think for once , India brutally exposed all major weak links in Pak. Now replacing Babar with Fakhar , Mirza with Shaheen and Ibrar with Nafay should be no Brainer. And make sure Faheem bowl atleast two overs per match, even 3, and 3 or 4 by Mirza , and rest can be taken care of by Spinners. These changes would mean we can atleast compete with other best teams in these conditions in super 8.

 

[Hikaru]

Usman has the intent, really great body language.

 

[AamchiMumbaikar]

Usman's shots are all a bit edgy. He's still there

 

[rickroll]

I sincerely hope we ditch Babar Azam for a long time and nurture someone else in that role. Babar has become a dead weight in the team dragging others down.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

they have Ishan and we have Usman ---ONLY THIS CAN TELL YOU HOW VAST THE GAP IS between teams

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

yar get this usman out..

 

[pakistani pride]

Shaheen and Babar are proven chokers. Yet we still selected them.

We need expierence of losers.

 

[saabir]

Not playing Fakhar is ridiculous

It would not have make any difference..he is done in T20..he regressed sharply in T20

 

[Asif321]

Usman khan has much better brain than top 3

 

[DRsohail]

This is carnage

 

[RexRex]

Dont worry Guys. England will spank india in the final

Perks of being a mudblood.

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Ussi bhai for the win

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Usman is doing well.

 

[rickroll]

Dont worry Guys. England will spank india in the final

Who cares what England does to some other team. While we can cope using Indian defeats I do not care much at that point when as Pakistan fans we badly want PCT to pick up a big win.

 

[TheNeutralist]

Usman playing well

 

[Devadwal]

2nd four of the over. Axar is leaking the runs. 48/4 in 7

 

[batandballbattle]

chalo at least usman can show his worth

[Asif321]

It wasn’t so hard to play here . Pakistan just messed up

 

[emranabbas]

Just need 9 an over without losing wickets doable

How many players to drop from a limited pool.?

Farhan is garbage against elite teams, he can only minnow Bash

Babar is over rated and a mental midget, out dated in T20

Shaheen is a batters dream now days

 

[Hikaru]

In this doom and gloom, very few seem to be noticing Pakistan's revival led by Usman.

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

I sincerely hope we ditch Babar Azam for a long time and nurture someone else in that role. Babar has become a dead weight in the team dragging others down.

this this is the last tournament he is playing in T20I, if there was itoa to shame left in selectors , they will kick him out

 

[big_gamer007]

Plenty of batting still left for Pakistan, Nawaz, Faheem, Shaheen, Abrar all are good batsman and can hit big. If these two play till 12th over Pakistan will be again in drivers seat.

 

[10sion]

Usman Khan - 29

Rest of the batsmen - 17

UK not being Pakistani enough.

 

[Red-Indian]

I'm actually supporting Pakistan to put up a fight here (not actually win) here. Else they could boycott the next one and we would miss our annual entertainment.

Drop all. Induct new young players that have the correct temperament and build around them.

 

[big_gamer007]

Pakistan are still strong favourites to win this one, their batting line up is till number 10.

Embarassing.

He is better than all current pak bowlers

 

[Human786]

nice partnership 55/4

 

[ameer219]

yar get this usman out..

Just be patient.

 

[Asif321]

Usman is putting out hyped batters on shame

 

[rickroll]

Can Usman become the Babar that Babar has failed to become?

 

[Hikaru]

Pakistan spinners bowled way better.

 

[JattMaula]

Good passage of play for Pakistan.

 

[Devadwal]

Misfield and four.

 

[Asif321]

It wasn’t that difficult to bat here it seems . What crap did our top 3 do !

 

[Syed1]

I can't believe how Shaheen can just walk into the team after being pathetic for so long

You talk sense.

You will be ignored.

 

[emranabbas]

Just 1 more run this over

Just get 9nan over

 

[Energy]

I can't believe how Shaheen can just walk into the team after being pathetic for so long

Same for Babar and Shadab.

 

[10sion]

Pakistan are the tigers who corner themselves.

 

[rickroll]

this this is the last tournament he is playing in T20I, if there was itoa to shame left in selectors , they will kick him out

I hope they do. As a fan it is heartbreaking at this point seeing PCB persisting with him.

 

[Human786]

57/4 in 8

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Ghantas fan would make him open agains ---just watch

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

In this doom and gloom, very few seem to be noticing Pakistan's revival led by Usman.

Mazaak mazaak mein 31 bana liye

 

[Hikaru]

Going by online forums, one would expect a riot in the stands. But the crowd from both sides looks so chill.

 

[Dr_Bassim]

I need a Babar supporter on this thread telling me Babar is a great.

Embarassing.

Pandya is big deal against Pak. He relies on banging the balls into pitch..and our batters for their life on line cant figure it out after so many repeated outings

I remember Melbourne , When he dismissed Haider Ali with same ploy

At this point its hilarious now

 

[ameer219]

Plenty of batting still left for Pakistan, Nawaz, Faheem, Shaheen, Abrar all are good batsman and can hit big. If these two play till 12th over Pakistan will be again in drivers seat.

Abrar??? You got to be kidding me.

 

[JaDed]

Good rr still, wickets is the issue

 

[jnaveen1980]

So far pakistan is trying to score everything behind the wicket. INdia has to block that area

 

[Human786]

dropped

 

[Asif321]

Hopefully Pakistan loses to Namibia and USA can qualify

 

[sweep_shot]

117 to win from 12 overs. 6 wickets in hand.

10 an over is doable.

 

[JattMaula]

Usman has played very well. Considering the situation, he has played a blinder.

 

[Syed1]

Drop

 

[JaDed]

life

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

axar nahi yaar..

 

[Hikaru]

It's on

 

[10sion]

With that drop Usman has just become the second highest scorer of the match

 

[sweep_shot]

117 to win from 12 overs. 6 wickets in hand.

10 an over is doable.

Back to back boundaries. Great batting from Usman.

Need 2-3 big overs.

 

[Justcrazy]

Pakistan need 115 runs in 71 balls.

Need clever batting from here , try and get a boundary and then look to rotate the strike

 

[PerfectionPersonified]

Usman has played very well. Considering the situation, he has played a blinder.

he has nothing to lose

 

[jnaveen1980]

Axar is not turning an inch

 

[amvbfm]

Usman jigra dikhatay huay. Whatever his technical deficiencies he is showing he has guts.

 

[Kroll]

choti choti kushiyan, he will get out soon.

 

[emranabbas]

We just 20 runs behind

 

[10sion]

I need a Babar supporter on this thread telling me Babar is a great.

@heddie19 @RizwanT20Champ

Why are you encouraging people to lie?

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Can Usman make this match interesting

 

[Asif321]

See it wasn’t that hard

 

[Josh]

Good batting by Usman

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

usman running away with this game.. Please please get him out

 

[Zeshan547]

You talk sense.

You will be ignored.

We lack talent but we lack common sense even more. We are our own biggest enemies and best at self destruction. That's the hardest pill to swallow. The unforced error are too many and too dumb.
