Even frequent rain delays couldn’t stop India’s march to yet another convincing win over Pakistan. They won the game by 124 runs (D/L), but even the margin didn’t show the gap between the two teams.

Earlier, India posted a mammoth 319 in 48 overs, courtesy a solid opening stand and then a late burst. India scored as many as 124 runs in the last eight overs. Those overs took the momentum towards India.

While bowling, it didn’t prove too difficult for the Indians, as Pakistan hardly showed any resistance. Apart from Azhar Ali and Mohammad Hafeez, no other Pakistan batsman managed to face the Indian attack.

“Very strong performance, we’ve taken the confidence from the practice games,” Kohli said. “We need to tighten our fielding to compete hard against the best teams. Quite delighted with all batsmen chipping in with runs.”

“Shikhar and Rohit – last time we won here, the opening partnership was crucial,” he added.
