India won by 4 wickets
India was currently in pursuit of a 160-run target set by Pakistan in their World Cup 2022 match at the Melbourne Cricket Ground.
India’s starting batters were up all night thinking about their previous T20 World Cup encounter with Pakistan.
In one of the most renowned T20 bowling performances ever, Shaheen Afridi dismissed both Rohit Sharma and KL Rahul in the span of just seven deliveries.
A vicious inswinger sent Rohit back to the dugout without making a dent in the score, and at the start of the next over, a magnificent delivery curved back in and castled Rahul’s stumps.
