PAK vs IND: Pacers shine as Pakistan bowl out India for 119

NEW YORK: The fast bowlers wreaked havoc and powered Pakistan to bundle out arch-rivals India on a modest 119 in the blockbuster ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 clash here at Nassau County International Cricket Stadium on Sunday.

Pace bowlers kept on striking as Indian batters failed to stay on the crease for longer and India were bowled out for 119 in 19 overs.

Virat Kohli was the first batter to fall to Pakistan bowling lineup as he fell to Naseem Shah in the second over of the inning after scoring four runs off three balls.

Rohit Sharma fell to Shaheen Afridi in the very next over trying to hit him for a maximum. The Indian skipper made 13 off 12 deliveries.

After the early departure of Indian opening pair, Rishabh Pant and Axar Patel tried to stablise the inning and took the total to 58 in 7.3 overs before Patel was bowled by Naseem Shah in the eighth over.

Patel’s dismissal sparked a collapse in the middle that saw India losing Pant, Suryakumar Yadav, Shivam Dube and Hardik Pandya in quick session.
