The T-20 world cup is leaving cricket-crazy nation India in a frenzy. Today Team India started its campaign against arch-rivals Pakistan. India won a thriller against Pakistan and gave a stunning breathtaking gift to all the fans in the country.

Batting first Pakistan scored 159/8 in 20 overs. India won the toss and put Pakistan in. Pakistan after a shaky start scored a competitive 159/8 thanks to the fifties from Shan Masood 52 (42) not out and Iftikhar Ahmed 51(34). Arshadeep Singh and Hardik Pandya rattled Pakistan picking 32/3 and 30/3 respectively.

India began its change in a shaky manner losing the top four batsmen for just 31 runs. However, Kohli came up with sensational stuff blasting boundaries, smashing sixes, and running like a hare between the wickets along with Hardik Pandya. Kohli in the last few overs raised his energy levels to new heights and ensured India won the match in the last ball. Kholi scored an unbeaten 82(53) and he is supported by Hardik Pandya who scored 40(37). Pakistan bowlers Haris Rauf and Mohmad Nawaz shattered India picking 36/2 and 40/2 respectively.
