COLOMBO (Channel News Pakistan) – Pakistan lost four wickets early in their vital ICC T20 World Cup match against India at the R Premadasa Stadium in Colombo, Sri Lanka, on Sunday.

India set a 176-run goal for Pakistan to win the vital ICC T20 World Cup match.
Earlier, Pakistan’s skipper Salman Ali Agha struck in the first over to remove Abhishek Sharma for a duck. Kishan, on the other hand, counterattacked with a flurry of boundaries, stabilising the innings and shifting the tide back in India’s advantage.
The wicketkeeper-batsman led India’s return with a fluent 77 off 40 deliveries, hitting 10 fours and three sixes before succumbing to Ayub’s spin.
