This is the straight eight victory for India against Pakistan in the World Cup tournament.

The true protagonists of this spectacle were the Indian bowlers, with Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav, and Ravindra Jadeja each securing two crucial wickets. Their collective effort dismantled the Pakistani batting lineup, restricting them to a modest 191 runs in a mere 42.5 overs. Amongst the Pakistani batsmen, Babar Azam and Mohammed Rizwan emerged as the highest scorers, notching up 50 and 49 runs respectively, providing a semblance of respectability to their team’s total. However, following Rizwan’s departure, none of the Pakistani batsmen managed to form a substantial partnership.

Rohit Sharma played a pivotal role in providing India with a formidable launchpad, amassing a commendable 86 runs off 63 balls. His stellar performance set the stage for India’s dominance, captivating a packed stadium with his masterful display. Subsequently, though India suffered an early setback with the loss of Shubham Gill’s wicket at a mere 16 runs off 11 balls, the arrival of Virat Kohli momentarily injected a note of apprehension. Unfortunately, Kohli was dismissed with just 16 runs to his name, momentarily unsettling the Indian camp. It was then that Shreyas Iyer took center stage, delivering a magnificent innings, notching up 53 runs off 62 balls, exhibiting an impressive strike rate of over 85%. Iyer’s determined display ensured that India adeptly surmounted Pakistan’s bowling challenge. KL Rahul, though not in a hurry, contributed a steady 19 runs off 29 balls.

On the Pakistani side, Shaheen Afridi displayed commendable prowess, claiming two vital wickets in just 6 overs while conceding a mere 36 runs. Hasan Ali added to the tally, securing one wicket. Despite an initial glimmer of success in taking early wickets, the Indian team exuded an air of complete control, ultimately sealing their victory with ease in this World Cup match.

In this showdown, India’s prowess shone brightly, with their bowlers dismantling the opposition’s batting lineup and their batsmen, particularly Rohit Sharma and Shreyas Iyer, exhibiting exemplary form. This triumph not only elevated India to the top of the tournament standings but also showcased the depth of their talent and the unwavering resolve of their players. The victory reverberated through the stadium, leaving no doubt that India was a force to be reckoned with in the cricketing world.
