About 10 months ago on 24 October 2021, the Indian team lost to Pakistan for the first time in the history of the World Cup. India has cleared the account of that defeat on Sunday night. Team India registered a spectacular victory over Pakistan by 5 wickets. Earlier, Pakistan defeated India by 10 wickets in the T20 World Cup 2021. This was Team India's 9th win over Pakistan in the Asia Cup.
5. Rahul's negligence could have cost the team heavy
KL Rahul is counted among the talented players of Team India, but in big matches, this player's bat is not able to do anything special. Team India had expected a little better in the Asia Cup from Rahul, who scored 3 runs off 8 balls in front of Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2021. But in this match too, he dashed the hopes.
19-year-old young bowler Naseem Shah bowled the second ball of the first over at a speed of 142 kilometers per hour. The ball took the inner edge of Rahul's bat and he got bowled. Disappointment spread on the faces of Indian fans, immersed in the celebration of Pakistan being all out on 147. Everyone was stunned remembering the top 3 Indian batters' flop show in the clash that happened 10 months ago. The middle order did take over later, but Rahul had put the team in trouble with his irresponsible attitude.
4. Rizwan got two lives in the very first over
The first over of an India-Pakistan match is special every time. At this time the beats of fans and players are the fastest. The matter becomes more interesting if Bhuvneshwar Kumar is the uncrowned king of the swing in front. The second ball of the match and Rizwan tries to play a cross-batted shot. He misses completely. The ball of the length around the off-stump gets stuck in the back thigh pad. Winds start blowing on Rizwan's face. He is declared out.
The Indian players are immersed in celebration, but the review shows that the ball is coming over the wicket. Rizwan tries to regain his lost confidence, but he finds himself uncomfortable in front of Bhuvi. Mohammad Rizwan once again on the last ball of the first over and strike. This time Rizwan changed the strategy. Instead of playing a crooked shot in the leg side, a failed attempt to hit a four in the covers on the outside off ball.
Team India's appeal in the hope of the outer edge of the bat, which the umpire completely denied. The Indian team took a review, it was found that the ball and the bat did not meet. Overall, Rizwan was threatened twice in the first over and both times he survived with great difficulty.
3. Jadeja hit the injured Naseem for a big six
19-year-old Pakistani bowler Naseem Shah was ready with the fourth ball of the 18th over of the Indian innings. Ravindra Jadeja was standing on the strike. The ball came and hit Jadeja's back pad directly. The ball came at a speed of 141 kmph, in front of which Jadeja did not get any chance to recover. With the speed with which the umpire's finger went up, with the same speed, Naseem himself fell to the ground. He was moaning with a cramp.
Here Naseem manages, there Jadeja took the review. All was well, but the question was whether the ball had pitched outside the leg. The answer was yes, and seeing this, crores of Indian cricket fans breathed a sigh of relief. Somehow overcoming the pain of the cramp and the disappointment of not getting a wicket, Naseem bowled the next ball. Jadeja did not have any mercy on the injured Naseem. Here Jadeja made room and there Naseem followed him.
The ball came into Jadeja's slot and he hit a six over the bowler's head. Now Naseem did not hurry at all to bowl the next ball. Took treatment first and then bowled comfortably with drinks.
2. Hard hitter Hardik remained cool even after the collision with Rizwan
Emotions run high during an India-Pakistan match. The players of both teams try their best to give their best on the field. Whoever does well in this great match becomes a star overnight. Despite the 10-wicket loss in the T20 World Cup 2021, Virat was in the news for hugging Babar and Rizwan. Some fans found this style of Kohli in line with the spirit of the game, while some fans were furious at Virat. Now a similar sight of friendship was seen in the Asia Cup.
Surya, who is being called India's Mr 360 degree player, got bowled on the second ball of the 15th over. Now, hard hitter, Hardik landed on the ground. During the bowling of Mohammad Nawaz, Hardik ran for a quick run and collided with Pakistan wicketkeeper Mohammad Rizwan. The atmosphere could have been hot-summer, but just the opposite was seen. Hardik hugs Rizwan and laughs fiercely.
Looking at both of them, it seems as if they are very old friends. Whereas the reality was that at the time when the new script of friendship was being written, at that time the match was in a very delicate situation. India needed more than 50 runs to win. If Pakistan had got Hardik's wicket, it could have created problems for India. But while staying cool, Hardik only showed enthusiasm in batting. He scored an unbeaten 33 runs off 17 balls with a strike of 194 and finally put the match in Team India's bag by hitting a six.
1. The flop star of the big match made a world record
Indian team captain Rohit Sharma is known by the world as Hitman. His sixes on the pull shot are worth watching. But there is an old problem, he is not able to perform in big matches. The final of the 2017 Champions Trophy is fresh in the mind of every Indian. In the final against Pakistan, Rohit walked on the ball of left-arm pacer Mohammad Amir without opening the account. India had to face a humiliating defeat.
Now let's remember the 2019 World Cup semi-finals. There too left-arm pacer Trent Boult was in front. Rohit scored 1 run in 4 balls and lost the wicket. The result of his poor batting was that Team India could not make it to the final. This match was the same, in which Dhoni retired from international cricket after being run out.
In the 2021 T20 World Cup against Pakistan in front of Shaheen Afridi, Rohit used to walk without opening an account. The wounds of that defeat by 10 wickets 10 months ago are still fresh.
Now let's talk about Asia Cup. Rohit overtook New Zealand's Martin Guptill as the highest run-scorer as he scored 11 runs against Pakistan. After hitting a six on the fourth ball of the 8th over, he was again trying to hit the sixth ball outside the field. Slow left-arm orthodox spinner Mohammad Nawaz's slow delivery of full-length spin away from him. So, all was set. He gave an easy catch. Overall, Rohit's poor performance in big matches continues unabated. Yes, by making the record of scoring the most runs in T20, Rohit has tried to put some ointment on the wounds of the fans.
