Pakistan collapse after strong start
After India won the toss and chose to field, Pakistan looked poised for a strong total with an 84-run opening stand. At 113 for 1 in the 13th over, they were firmly in control. However, what followed was a monumental collapse. Within the next seven overs, Pakistan lost nine wickets for just 33 runs, finishing on 146 all out.
Kuldeep Yadav spearheaded the turnaround with a remarkable four-wicket haul, including three in a single over. Varun Chakravarthy, Axar Patel, and Jasprit Bumrah contributed crucial breakthroughs with two wickets each.
Tilak Varma rises to the occasion
India’s reply began shakily, with the top order faltering under pressure. Tilak Varma then steadied the innings, playing one of the most significant knocks of his career so far. Remaining unbeaten on 69 runs off 53 deliveries, he anchored the chase with composure and remarkable maturity.
The winning runs came from Rinku Singh’s bat, sending the Indian dressing room and the packed stands into celebrations. Yet for many, the night belonged to Tilak Varma, who announced himself as a reliable match-winner capable of thriving on the biggest stage.
