04 September, Dubai: Pakistan defeats India in the nail-biting competition. Pakistan won the toss and opted to bowl first. India made 181 runs in 20 overs. There were a few good knocks from Virat and a few other batsmen to put a respectable score on the board. Shabad Khan bowled very well and gave Pakistan an initial breakthrough to stop the India batsman on a reasonable score.
Later, Pakistan’s batsmen took the responsibility into their hands and kept on moving the scorecard, although there was one big wicket of Babar down with a very little run. Mohammad Rizwan was the hero of today’s match. Mohammad Rizwan made 71 runs in 51 balls.
The BCCI must need to think about the team selection in the next match. Think about adding Bumrah and Ravindra Jadeja to the team before the T20 World Cup in 2022.
