About the India-Pakistan match

India produced a commanding all-round performance to rout Pakistan by 61 runs in their Group A ICC Men’s T20 World Cup 2026 clash. India posted 175 runs for the loss of 7 wickets in 20 overs, with explosive top-order batting highlighted by Ishan Kishan’s 77 off 40 balls and valuable contributions down the order that helped set a challenging target.

Pakistan’s spin attack, led by Saim Ayub, provided some resistance but couldn’t prevent India from reaching a formidable total. India’s win extended their T20 World Cup head-to-head supremacy to 8–1 against Pakistan.
