Choosing to field first, the Indian bowlers unleashed a breathtaking performance, restricting Pakistan to a mere 191 runs in 42.5 overs. With the exception of Shardul Thakur, who bowled just a couple of overs, the rest of the bowlers claimed two wickets each. Jasprit Bumrah stood out, grabbing two wickets while conceding a mere 19 runs in his 7 overs, including a maiden.
Pakistan’s Babar Azam (50 off 58) and Mohammad Rizwan (49 off 69) were the top scorers for their side, but they couldn’t prevent their team from collapsing.
