India defeated Pakistan by four wickets in a T20 World Cup Super 12 match. Virat Kohli led the chase, guiding India home in a tight finish after a strong bowling performance from Arshdeep Singh and Bhuvneshwar Kumar had restricted Pakistan. Hardik Pandya also contributed with a key partnership with Kohli to keep India in the game.
Pakistan posted a competitive total, with Ahmed and Masood providing a strong start, but Hardik's double strike disrupted their momentum. Pakistan's pacers had earlier put India under pressure, but Kohli's innings proved decisive. India won the toss and elected to bowl first.
The win extends India's unbeaten World Cup record against Pakistan. Pakistan, after a poor performance with both bat and ball and missed fielding chances, now face an uphill battle to stay in the tournament.
