India crush bitter rivals after Kishan masterclass
Cape Argus
|February 16, 2026
INDIA routed their bitter rivals Pakistan by 61 runs yesterday to qualify for the next round of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup, in a showdown that had been in doubt until only a few days ago.
-
Suryakumar Yadav’s side posted 175/7 after being given a flying start by Ishan Kishan’ brilliant 77, before bowling out Pakistan for 114 in 18 overs. The defeat continued Pakistan's woeful record against India in World Cups; India have now won eight of their nine T20 World Cup meetings and remain undefeated in all eight of their ODI World Cup encounters.
Pakistan got off to the worst possible start in their chase of 176. Sahibzada Farhan top-edged a slog to mid-on for a duck in Hardik Pandya’s first over. It quickly became 6/2 when Jasprit Bumrah’s second ball trapped Saim Ayub (6) plumb in front. Captain Salman Agha (4) was next to go, mistiming a slog off Bumrah’s sixth ball to leave his team in dire straits at 13/3.
