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.

WEST Indies became the first team into the Super 8s of the ICC Men's T20 World Cup after a nine-wicket win over Nepal at Wankhede Stadium, powered by Shai Hope's unbeaten 61.

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.
