INDvsPAK Cricket - India won Asia Cup 2022 T20 Match against Pakistan

India vs Pakistan, Asia Cup 2022: IND beats PAK by 5 wickets 

Hardik Pandya starred with the ball and bat as India defeated Pakistan by five wickets in the Group A encounter at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.

 

Hardik Pandya (33* 17b, 4x4x, 1x6) and Ravindra Jadeja (35, 29b,2x4, 2x6) kept their cool under pressure to guide India to a six-wicket win over Pakistan in the Asia Cup at Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.

The duo got together at 89 for four, with India chasing 148. Pakistan was on top at this stage, but the all-rounders hung around to chip away at the total. With seven needed off the last over, Jadeja lost his stumps to left-arm spinner Mohammad Nawaz. It took a mighty six from Pandya to finish the job.

Virat Kohli’s milestone 100th T20I nearly ended in disaster, when he slashed at a full ball from Naseem Shah. Fakhar Zaman, at second slip, was a tad slow to react and put down a tough chance.

Kohli moved to 35, before a moment of indecision brought his downfall. He danced down the track to Nawaz, but failed to get to the pitch of the ball and chipped it to long-off.
