00:00It is victory for India. It has been a terrific chase.
00:05These performances here stand out.
00:08Congratulations to Sri Lanka.
00:10Some really deserve it champions.
00:15So good evening to all our viewers all around the world.
00:19We're back at the Dubai International Stadium
00:20and it is the match two in the Super Fours.
00:24It's India taking on Pakistan.
00:26A little while earlier the toss took place
00:28and it was Surya Kumar Yadav who won the toss for India
00:31and decided to field first.
00:33In fact, both captains said they would have fielded.
00:37So here we go.
00:38Hardik Pandya will start the proceedings.
00:41Farhan, the man on strike.
00:45Pakistan would have watched the last game
00:47when India played Oman.
00:51Swings!
00:53Third man making!
00:55A real mess of it.
00:58Just got the feeling he took it lightly.
01:01He was literally standing
01:03and he wasn't really making any move
01:05for a long period
01:06and then he realized
01:08that it is
01:10not coming to me.
01:11I have to go to the ball.
01:13This should have been a comfortable catch there,
01:16a third man.
01:19That's up in the air.
01:22This will land safely.
01:24The intention is pretty clear.
01:30He's got a strike rate of 158 in 34 innings
01:36in T20s in 2025.
01:43Down the track, into the gap.
01:47This outfield, a little slower than the one in Abu Dhabi.
01:51He wants the third, sent back.
01:55And flicked away nicely.
02:00And this should race away to the fence.
02:03The good start is for Pakistan.
02:07Again, down the track.
02:08He smashes it down the ground.
02:12Oh, that's beautifully played.
02:16That's smart cricket.
02:20Now, did that carry?
02:29Clear edge.
02:31Go to the catch, please.
02:34Okay.
02:34Roll it back and forward, please.
02:41Just give me another angle.
02:46Okay.
02:47Take it, yeah.
02:48Roll it forward.
02:49Yeah.
02:50Clearly, fingers underneath.
02:51Ball hits the fingers and goes up.
02:54Yeah, I have a decision for the big spin.
02:57Well,
02:59out is the decision.
03:01Do they feel the fingers are under the ball?
03:07Oh, lovely shot.
03:10Oh, that's quality.
03:12That's why he's rated so highly.
03:15I've seen it a few more times, I guess.
03:19Could be a wide.
03:21Banged it short.
03:22Well over Siam Ayoub's head.
03:28Pulls, handsomely for four.
03:33Oh, that's put away.
03:36They've just been taken on the full.
03:39Tamsin, very confident.
03:41Hardik Pandya, slightly skeptic, and this could be a wicket.
03:43There could be no doubt in this catch.
03:46Oh, he's dropped it again.
03:47The second time.
03:49India dropped a catch.
03:51Is it anxiety setting in?
03:55And again, he's gone for the slow, but he'll get some bonus runs this time.
04:00Gonna be four runs.
04:04Well done.
04:05This is really good batting from Pakistan.
04:10Was that not out?
04:11I think the opinion in the commentary box as well is divided.
04:16There should be a camera there, both hands.
04:20Good running this.
04:21A certain flow to the inning, despite Fukuzaman gone.
04:25Just like that.
04:26Another handsome hit over Midov.
04:31Now is that going to go over the field?
04:33And now he's got his hand to it.
04:36And this could be six.
04:40Cool deep again.
04:42Going downtown.
04:43How far is that gone?
04:44That's a beauty.
04:45What a great way to start the over.
04:47That's a fine shot from Sam Ayuk.
04:50By the Pakistani batters.
04:54A fine stroke again.
04:56And that's going over the top for six.
04:58So we saw that graphic showing the problems they've had in the middle order.
05:02A quantity of 7.2 is very tidy.
05:05A bit short.
05:06Pounced on that.
05:07Hit it pretty well.
05:08That's gone for six runs.
05:09That's a big six.
05:11It's at the upper level as well.
05:12And it's also 50 runs.
05:14That's his fourth.
05:15Really good work from Farhan.
05:1751 of 34.
05:18Outstanding.
05:22Top edge.
05:25Good catch.
05:26Now that's a good catch.
05:28Now he's taken a fine grab.
05:30The ball bouncing off his right hand.
05:32He's a left-hander.
05:32Don't forget.
05:33And this is a very good catch.
05:37Running in.
05:39There was a fielder.
05:41Near the 30-meter circle.
05:42But the one running forward has a better chance of getting there as we saw with Abhishek taking
05:47that catch to give Shivam Duway the wicket of Sai Mayuk for 21 and a score of 93 for two
05:53in the 11th.
05:55He likes to play shots from ball one.
05:58Scampering through.
05:59Coming back for the second as well.
06:01It's good running.
06:02You can put the screws on here.
06:05Nice little paddle.
06:06Nice and fine.
06:07Chase is on.
06:08Not going to go all the way.
06:10You can look to come back for the third.
06:12And they decide to come back for the third.
06:14That's good running.
06:20Fielder should be able to get around it.
06:23Boundary fielders have been under serious pressure today.
06:26Bumrah did well.
06:27Got his body behind it.
06:30Gone the other way.
06:31And this could be out.
06:34Finally Koldibyadar gets the wicket.
06:36That's his habit normally.
06:39Yeah, he might want to look away.
06:41Oh, Sain Talat.
06:42He goes for the reverse.
06:44By no means out of the middle.
06:46Simple catch to Varun Chakavaradi.
06:49Koldibyadar, you cannot keep him out of the wickets.
06:55The outfield has been on the slower side.
06:57So all these edges normally in India.
06:58You get four runs for it.
07:01They've come back for the second with the fumble.
07:06Beautiful shot.
07:08And great fielding as well.
07:10Top class cricket.
07:11Just what you want to see.
07:15He's lost his bat.
07:17And soon he might lose his wicket as well.
07:20He does.
07:23Shivam Dubey has got his second.
07:25And Pakistan have to be careful.
07:28They've had a good shot.
07:30And they don't want to squander that away.
07:33And to make matters worse, it is Saibzada Farhan who will have to walk back.
07:39Providing all the impetus this time around.
07:41Chasing one.
07:42Almost having a blind swipe.
07:44And a short wide delivery.
07:46Dubey rolling his fingers over.
07:47Captain takes a simple catch.
07:50And that is the undoing of the opener.
07:52Played a really good hand.
07:54But he falls for 58.
07:57Farhan off 45.
07:59Three big hits in his knock as well.
08:01Pakistan lose their fourth for 115.
08:02The range of shots that they have.
08:05The go-to shot.
08:07Backing up.
08:08Long way.
08:09Took a while to take the bails off.
08:13And it's only because of the pressure that India is mounting.
08:16Never a run there.
08:17Very early on.
08:19And Nawaz sent the captain back.
08:21And very lucky.
08:21Varun Chakravarti was in front of the stumps.
08:25Skipper looking to take him on.
08:27There is a man down there.
08:28Harak Pandey.
08:29He's got good hands.
08:30But it's too far for him.
08:32Six runs.
08:32Got connections from Skipper.
08:34Really good shot.
08:35India been outstanding.
08:37In the last 20 minutes.
08:3925 minutes.
08:40Got nine moves from here.
08:42They get to the 160 mark.
08:44Quicker delivery.
08:45Down the leg side.
08:46He's going to the 90s.
08:48Roll it forward.
08:50Roll it forward.
08:52All the way to the pads, please.
08:57Goal tracker coming up.
08:58Pitching outside the leg.
09:00Darcy stay with your not out decision.
09:02You're on camera.
09:03Dubbo back into the attack.
09:06Club that.
09:07Tie.
09:08Has it gone all the way?
09:09Yes.
09:10Six runs.
09:10So that's a good start to the go-back.
09:14Surprised with Nawaz kind of the crease.
09:15So most of it.
09:16When you've got someone like Harris.
09:18Who's an aggressive batsman in the line-up.
09:22Could have been ideal at that stage.
09:27Set that to down the ground.
09:28In the air.
09:30And safe.
09:31They're going to come back for the second.
09:36Sec edge.
09:37Runs away for four.
09:40Much needed for Pakistan.
09:45Drilled through extra cover.
09:46I think that's going to go test the sweeper.
09:51And only two in the end.
09:53So that's a really good fielding.
09:57Hard down the ground.
09:59Probably hit it too well.
10:00I'm just going to come back for the second.
10:02It's the big dive in the last minute.
10:04So that's a big over.
10:07Advancing outside the line of off-stamp.
10:09Getting a full toss.
10:10And doing a great deal with it.
10:15Pebulous over so far from Jessica Brumla.
10:19What's happening there?
10:20He's gone up.
10:22Okay.
10:23Bats in the air.
10:26When the bails are off.
10:29Well, that is quite extraordinary.
10:31That is just lack of awareness.
10:34Too many deliveries left.
10:35What can he do?
10:38First ball.
10:39Hits it up high.
10:40How far has it gone?
10:41That's the key.
10:43Far enough as far as Pakistan's concerned.
10:47Just below the waist.
10:51Short.
10:51Hammered that one.
10:53That's in the vicinity.
10:54Oh, another one down.
10:56My goodness.
10:57This is Shubham Gill.
10:59He's put that one down.
11:01Standing on a roundabout off-stamp.
11:04Gone over the top of the keeper.
11:06And that's going to run away to the boundary.
11:11Stunning that end of the ground.
11:12Not...
11:13Oh, they thought about taking.
11:14Thought about stopping.
11:15Thought about taking.
11:15Decided to go back and take nothing.
11:17Only four outside, as you can see.
11:22Hasn't got that cleanly.
11:24Down to the middle of the blade.
11:25They're looking to come back for the second.
11:27And they do double up to get Ashraf back on strike.
11:30Good running.
11:31And for one, last ball.
11:33Sliced away.
11:35There is a man out there.
11:36And it goes over the top for Seix.
11:38So that's a good result for the last ball for Pakistan.
11:42Takes him past that average score.
11:46Average winning score batting first.
11:48Takes him to 171.
11:51Right over, underway.
11:54Massive gain.
11:56First ball.
11:57Short delivery first off.
11:59And it's picked up Yerda Flea for six.
12:02That has set some tone.
12:04No problem whatsoever.
12:06Out of the par.
12:08Went deep in the crease and used the pace nicely.
12:12It seemed like that he knew what was coming at him.
12:16Wow.
12:16What a shot.
12:17What a start.
12:18And again, it's the first ball of the over.
12:20He does this so often.
12:21Hitting a boundary in the first ball of the over.
12:23On strike.
12:26Tried to fire towards the pads.
12:28Good enough to get bad on that solidly.
12:30And they just take the one.
12:31He retains the strike.
12:32So nine off the first over.
12:35They can double up with this over.
12:36It'll be a tidy start from Pakistan.
12:39A little bit of leg side.
12:40He's got that away comfortably.
12:42Not going to get away with that line against this batting.
12:44That's gone for four.
12:50That's through that cover region.
12:52And that's another one.
12:54They get the first one.
12:56A little bit short and wide the second.
12:59Give him a treatment as well.
13:02Slow delivery that time from Afridi.
13:05Nicely bowled.
13:06Ended up being a nice length as well with that slower ball.
13:09Get off the par.
13:11In the air.
13:12Can this be taken?
13:13No.
13:15It was an excellent try.
13:17But ball was always going away from him.
13:20With his left hand.
13:23Oh, that's strong.
13:25That's terrific.
13:26Picked up that length and just slapped it over the top for four.
13:30Nice controlled shots from India.
13:33Oh, that's brilliant again.
13:35Chase is on from the sweeper.
13:39Probably going to settle just for two.
13:41Third man in mid-wicket.
13:43Oh, that's drill along the ground.
13:45Threats to cover.
13:46That's a great shot.
13:47What a nice way to finish the over.
13:49Boundary of the last ball.
13:51Twelve runs from it.
13:5331 for none.
13:54Yes, boundaries are coming.
13:55But at least you can do is stop those singles.
14:01I don't think the ball hit the stumps.
14:04I think it was one of the hardest hands.
14:07The keeper misses the ball.
14:09I want to see whether the ball is going to hit the stumps.
14:13Okay, roll it forward.
14:14Over all the way, all the way.
14:22Waiter had so much time and he's got that away.
14:25One bounce and it's gone for four.
14:27Batting, sensible batting.
14:30Set that one very high indeed.
14:32How far has that one gone?
14:33That's gone far enough.
14:34That's six.
14:39This plug-in with the vacant field over that slashing off stump.
14:48It's a better line.
14:49He'll be targeting the stumps of that length.
14:55Contest is getting a little heated as well.
15:00Short and put away.
15:03And Gil with almost class.
15:06Twelve runs off that over.
15:07Five overs done.
15:09Fifty-five for no loss.
15:14Abhishek Sharma at the moment seems to have answers to pretty much everything.
15:19A straight hit for four.
15:21Last ball of the previous over.
15:24Watch Gil.
15:25So easy.
15:27So pleasing to watch on the eye.
15:29Yes.
15:30Brilliant.
15:31Absolutely brilliant, Chuck.
15:32And both these guys play with each other.
15:40Brilliant.
15:41Full of class.
15:43Gil puts that away for four.
15:49Short.
15:49A ranked long hop.
15:51Deserved that treatment.
15:56Where's his ball sailing to?
15:58Into the fence and into the boundary goals.
16:01Another big six.
16:03Oh, Fabi-Shek Sharma.
16:06Once again, the big shot.
16:07Doesn't have the distance.
16:09Will this be taken?
16:11Oh, he's bombed it over.
16:13He's made an absolute mess of that as Fakhar Zaman.
16:21Short and wide.
16:25Yeah, Pakistan just losing the radar.
16:32The reverse.
16:34And played to absolute perfection.
16:40Away from the fielder.
16:44And into the fence as well.
16:46He will raise a bat to a full house here in Dubai.
16:50As he brings up his third international T20, I-50.
16:54To go along with two incredible hundreds.
16:56What a player.
16:58What a player indeed.
17:03Again, in the air.
17:04An opportunity.
17:06Now it'll land safely.
17:12Bang.
17:13This time, it's over mid-off.
17:16Will land safely and they'll come back for two.
17:22Bowden straight away after the break.
17:25Pakistan get the breakthrough.
17:28And right through the defense of Chopin Gill.
17:33Maybe nip back a bit, tad bit here.
17:36Off-stum going.
17:36Good delivery.
17:37Good length.
17:38And they got the first breakthrough.
17:41Couple of wickets here.
17:42And maybe put little pressure on India.
17:45But right now, India is on top.
17:46And what an innings from Gill.
17:4747 of 28.
17:49105 for one.
17:52That's chipped in the air.
17:56Catch taken.
17:57It's again Harris Ralph.
17:59Who's got Surya Kumar Yadav.
18:02Mentioned this is a good matchup.
18:04Let's have a look.
18:08He's going towards his favorite area.
18:11Square leg, fine leg.
18:12But got the top edge.
18:13Very well judged catch by Brar at third man.
18:16His second wicket for Pakistan.
18:18Skipper departs for without any runs.
18:21106 for two now.
18:26Oh, that's a good strike.
18:28Nice pace.
18:30And swinging it down the ground.
18:32Literally flat batted it for four.
18:37Oh, lovely shot this.
18:39Just carved it through the offside.
18:45Goes.
18:46Goes big again.
18:51It's just incredible.
18:54Abhishek Sharma.
18:57Oh dear.
18:58This could be.
19:00Yes.
19:02Taken.
19:04Somewhere.
19:05Caught in two minds, I think.
19:07When he hit that shot, it seemed like he was just bailing out.
19:10In the end.
19:12It was an in-between shot.
19:16Yeah, almost a chip shot in the end.
19:19Toe end of the bat.
19:20And then he just had a look as to see if Haris Rauk made the ground.
19:24He did eventually took a good catch.
19:25A low catch diving in.
19:28But not after Abhishek Sharma praise.
19:31An absolutely incredible knockoff 74.
19:34Those things.
19:37Lovely timing as he found the gap there.
19:42Couple of runs.
19:46This is another guy.
19:48This is the thing with this Indian batting lineup.
19:51We were just talking about the class of Shipman Gill.
19:55Have a look at this shot.
20:00Good ball.
20:01Just kicked on.
20:03Rick, it's in this format.
20:05Oh, that's a great shot.
20:07Really good shot.
20:09It's been quiet for a while.
20:11Tillakvarma.
20:15It's not time this one.
20:17Three fielders getting close to the ball.
20:19And it lands right in between the triangle.
20:23Play freely.
20:24Play comfortably.
20:26Bowling.
20:28Clean him up.
20:29Just a perfect length from Haris Rauk.
20:39Right through his defense.
20:41No contact.
20:42Big gap between bat and pad.
20:44In the end, a cross-battered heave.
20:48Ball crashing into the stumps.
20:52Pakistan will still want to fight.
20:54One wicket could lead to another.
20:56That's what they've got to believe in.
20:58Samson goes for 13.
20:59148 for four.
21:03Oh, glorious.
21:08Superbly timed.
21:12Oh, that's long away for six.
21:17Getting the baller to be bowling in that region.
21:21That's a clean strike.
21:23Clean airs for six.
21:26So just two needed.
21:31That's picked away.
21:34India home and Rai.
21:37174 for four.
21:38They win by six wickets.
21:42And they continue their domination over Pakistan in the T20 format of the game.
21:47It's the highest chase against Pakistan in T20 cricket.
21:51The previous highest, 160 at the G in the World Cup.
21:55That's the highest, 160 at the G in the World Cup.
21:55That's the highest, 160 at the G in the World Cup.
21:56That's the highest, 160 at the G in the World Cup.
21:56That's the highest, 160 at the G in the World Cup.
