India vs Pakistan Match Stats

OUT! BOWLED'EM! That's Jasprit Bumrah for you, never ever misses out on the big occasion and India are back in the game. Bumrah sprints in from over the stumps and comes from a bit wider on the crease. Spears this one in like a harpoon on a tad fuller length and angles it well into the stumps. Mohammad Rizwan takes a step or two across the off stump and looks to play a cross-batted shot but the ball sneaks through to castle into the stumps. Rizwan looked steaky in the last few overs and now has to depart.

Just back of a length and outside off stump, Shadab Khan hangs back and dabs it down to point.

That nagging length again, keeping it in the channel around off and at 141.2 clicks, Shadab Khan plays tentatively at it and gets an outside edge to a wide first slip.

Full and looking to attack the pads, turns out to be a low full toss, Shadab Khan with a mistimed shot straight to mid on and he sets off for the single. The fielder has a shy at the bowler's end but misses as Shadab dives in to make his ground.

Another one that slides through with a round-arm action, on a short length, Imad Wasim gets rushed as he goes for the cut and he misses.

And again! Much closer to the off-stump line and it is quicker as well, on off, Imad Wasim gets beaten for pace as he looks to use the pace and play it fine on the off side.

Offers a bit of width this time and it is too short as well, the ball sticks in the surface and it results in Imad Wasim mistiming the hit to deep point for one. Just 2 runs off the over and India are building the pressure here.

Smart batting! Hardik sees the batter make room and follows him with a heavy delivery, Shadab Khan calmly tucks it in the vacant mid-wicket region and comes back for the second run.

OUT! GONE! Hardik Pandya strikes again! Another well-directed bumper from the Indian all-rounder and he gets the reward. Shadab Khan shows his cards early as he backs away to the leg side to access the off side. Hardik reacts by banging into the deck and aims it at the batter. Shadab is unable to free his arms but still tries to take the short ball on. Gets big on him and it lobs off the splice of the bat behind the wicket. The keeper, Rishabh Pant runs to his left and takes it safely near the short fine leg region.

Beats the bat does Hardik! This is on a hard length, over off and middle, Imad Wasim creates room by moving to the leg side and tries to slap it square on the off side but the ball zips through to go over the bat.

Superb stuff from Hardik Pandya! A wicket and just the 5 runs off it. The required run rate for Pakistan has crept up to 10 now. Hardik rolls his fingers over the ball and it is a bit fuller as well, on off, Imad Wasim drags the slog without any timing whatsoever to long on for just a single. Hardik is done with the ball. He finishes with figures of 4-0-24-2 and has delivered for India in a pressure game.

Steams in from over the wicket and bashes it in on a hard length, over middle, Imad Wasim moves leg side and chops it down to deep point for a single.

NO BALL! Oh, no! India cannot afford this. Mohammed Siraj has overstepped. Pitches it right up, on middle, Iftikhar Ahmed drives it a bit too straight and it hits the stumps at the bowling end. Free Hit coming up.

Gets away with it does Siraj! Goes searching for the yorker but it comes out as a full toss, on off, Iftikhar Ahmed mistimes the hit to the right of deep point for a couple of runs.

Honing in around middle, on a hard length, Iftikhar Ahmed dabs it in the vacant mid-wicket region for a single as Siraj cuts it off. Can Siraj close out the over well here?

Yes, he can. Just a single off the last ball. It leaves Pakistan needing 21 runs off the last 2 overs but remember, one of those will be bowled by Jasprit Bumrah. Dishes out a low full toss, on middle, Imad Wasim jams it out to the left of the bowler. Siraj fails to get down low enough in his follow through and the ball rolls down to long on for one.

Starts from over the wicket and takes all the pace off as he goes into the turf, on middle and leg. Imad Wasim hops to keep it out with a straight bat but the ball grips in the surface and catches the outer half of the bat. It rolls wide of backward point and the batters cross for one.

Clever, very clever! Being able to bowl with such control is tremendous from Bumrah. Slips in a slower bumper, on off, Iftikhar Ahmed hops but he is not sure what to do with it. Drops his wrists and lets the ball go through. The ball passes well below his head and it is dot.

Swing and a miss! At pace and lands it on a hard length, outside off, Iftikhar Ahmed stays rooted in his crease and goes for a wild heave across the line but connects with thin air.

Leg bye! Iftikhar Ahmed missed out there big time! A pacy full toss from Bumrah, on the pads, Iftikhar Ahmed gets beaten for pace as he swings to help it away on the leg side. The ball rolls his pads to backward square leg for a leg bye.

Casual running from Imad Wasim but he gets away with it! Angling away, on a nagging length, on off, Imad Wasim slaps it straight to extra cover on the ring. Rohit Sharma fires in a slightly wayward throw at the bowling end but Bumrah does well to flick back onto the stumps. Wasim does not stretch forward nor does he drag his bat but his bat is just inside the crease when the bails lit up.

OUT! IN THE AIR AND GONE! A bit of miscommunication but Arshdeep Singh did the job in the end! Jasprit Bumrah closes out the over in the best possible fashion. Bumrah misses his mark as he bowls a low full toss, slanting in on the pads, Iftikhar Ahmed misses out again and skies it high in the air towards deep backward square leg. Arshdeep Singh and Suryakumar Yadav converge and none of them makes the call for the catch. However, Arshdeep settles under it and takes it safely.

OUT! EDGED AND GONE! Expertly held by Rishabh Pant and India could not have asked for a better start to the final over. Arshdeep slips in a yorker from over the wicket, angling in, at the toes, Imad Wasim gets cramped for room as he looks to jam it out. Gets an inside edge on it but Pant is equal to the task as he dives low to his right to take it. Imad takes the review more in hope than anything. There is a clear spike on the UltraEdge and this is a body blow to Pakistan.

Hurls it full and straight, on off, Naseem Shah clears his front leg and drills it along the carpet to long off. Singles won't hurt India.

Leg bye! Nearly sneaked through! A searing yorker from over the wicket, aimed at the toes, Shaheen Afridi fails to get his bat down in time and gets hit on the toes. The ball rolls off his toes and the batters cross over.

FOUR! Innovative and effective! Keeps Pakistan in the game does Naseem. Arshdeep goes searching for the yorker but misses his mark slightly, low full toss, on off, Naseem Shah moves to the off side and plays the scoop over short fine leg for a boundary.

FOUR! A boundary but it will not be enough for Pakistan. That should do it for India and now, Arshdeep Singh needs to ensure that he does not concede any extras here. Angling away, fuller as well, Naseem Shah slices it in the air towards deep point where Virat Kohli sprints and puts in a dive to his right but the ball evades him.

THAT'S IT! INDIA HAVE DONE IT! Arshdeep Singh steams in from over the wicket and nails the yorker, at the stumps, Naseem Shah can only dig it out to long off for just a single. Dejected faces in the Pakistan dugout. Joy and ecstasy are on the faces of Indian players and fans alike. India win by 6 runs!
