India restrict Pakistan in low-scoring T20 match

Jasprit Bumrah finished with three for 14 as India successfully defended 119 to beat rivals Pakistan by six runs at the T20 World Cup in New York yesterday.
India restrict Pakistan in low-scoring T20 match

Pakistan were hoping to bounce back from their shock opening loss to the USA and appeared well on course to do that after bowling out India, for whom only Rishabh Pant (42), Axar Patel (20) and Rohit Sharma (13) reached double figures, cheaply.

A Pakistan victory still seemed on the cards as they reached 80 for three after 14 overs in response, but the loss of opener Mohammad Rizwan for a 44-ball 31, bowled by Bumrah, saw the tide turn.

With the run rate continuing to rise and the India attack, led by the brilliant Bumrah, giving little away, there was too much work left for Pakistan’s middle order as they were restricted to 113 for seven.

That left India with two wins from two in Group A and 2022 runners-up Pakistan staring at an early exit.
