India captain Rohit Sharma’s decision to bowl first after winning the toss at the jam-packed Narendra Modi Stadium proved to be effective as his troops restricted Pakistan to a total of 191 runs in 42.5 overs.
Pakistan’s innings
Pakistan’s innings witnessed notable contributions from Babar Azam (50) and Mohammad Rizwan, who missed his half-century by a solitary run. However, the Indian bowling attack, comprising of Jasprit Bumrah, Mohammed Siraj, Hardik Pandya, Kuldeep Yadav and Ravindra Jadeja put up an impressive display, collectively taking wickets and containing the Pakistani batters.
From 153-2 in 29.4 overs, Pakistan lost their remaining 8 wickets for just 38 runs in next 13.1 overs.
