Ahmedabad: Team India need 192 to make it 8-0 against Pakistan in ODI World Cups after their bowlers showed once again that they are a force to reckon with.
Having chosen to field first after Rohit Sharma won the toss in front of nearly 1 lakh spectators at Narendra Modi Stadium, Team India seemed to be on the backfoot when the prolific duo of skipper Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan settled down in a threatening third-wicket partnership.
Just after Babar completed his fifty, Mohammad Siraj broke through his defences.
The irrepressible Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav then got into the act to scythe through the Pakistani middle order.
There was no respite as Hardik Pandya and Ravindra Jadeja also chipped in, and Pakistan disintegrated from 155/2 to 191 all out in the space of 13 overs.
Apart from the top four, only Hasan Ali for into double digits as Bumrah, Siraj, Kuldeep, Jadeja and Pandya bagged two wickets apiece.
