New Delhi. The Pakistan team has started its campaign for the ICC T20 World Cup 2021 with a win. Pakistan team defeated India by 10 wickets. As much as this victory means to Pakistan, this defeat has been shameful for India. Be it ODI or T20 World Cup, for the first time Pakistan’s team has won against India. After this victory, Babar Azam, the captain of the Pakistan team said that the victory is the victory of the team.
He said after the match, “It was a team effort and the early wickets were very helpful. It gave us a lot of confidence and our spinners were also very good. We executed our plans and got results. We openers kept it simple. And formed a partnership and since the wicket was getting better we wanted to bat till the end, which we did. It’s not going to be easy, because we beat India. We’ll take confidence, but we’ll do it one match at a time. There is a long way to go, and the tournament has a long way to go. We prepared well and kept history out of our mind. We needed quality training and warm-up matches and even our domestic tournaments and those games have given us a lot. Gave confidence.”
The first three wickets of the Indian team fell on a total score of just 31 runs, when Rohit Sharma without opening the account, KL Rahul scoring 3 runs and Suryakumar Yadav scoring 11 runs got out. Although India scored 151 runs on the strength of captain Virat Kohli, but the innings played by Pakistan team opener Muhammad Rizwan and captain Babar Azam in reply to 152 runs proved that India did not deserve to win this match. There was not a single time in the match, when it seemed that India remained intact in this match.
