India vs Pakistan, 27th Match, Group A, ICC Men's T20 World Cup 2026 - Player Highlights

Salman Agha to Ishan Kishan, 1 run, sliced in the air and Kishan gets away with it! Not a great shot. Tossed up outside off, the line is pretty wide and he's looking to go for a big sweep. Length is a bit shorter than ideal too. He fails to get on top of it and slices it in front of long-off. The ball drops well short of the fielder

Salman Agha to Tilak Varma, 1 run, 95kph, slides in off a good length and Tilak gently tucks it into the midwicket region

Salman Agha to Ishan Kishan, 1 run, pushed through flat on a good length, Kishan steps out, doesn't meet the pitch and just nudges it into the on-side

Salman Agha to Ishan Kishan, 2 runs, down on one knee for the sweep, takes a thick top-edge over square leg, back for a couple of runs as the fielder chases it down

Salman Agha to Ishan Kishan, no run, dances down but the length is pulled back and he's nowhere to the pitch of it. Tries working it through the on-side but is hit on the pad as it slides in with the arm

Salman Agha to Ishan Kishan, FOUR, Salman misses his length and is punished. Nothing was in the slot in his previous over, but this one is. Kishan spots it early, clears the front leg and smokes it over mid-on

Salman Agha to Abhishek Sharma, out Caught by Shaheen Afridi!! Salman opening the bowling has turned out to be a masterstroke. Duck in the opening game, and another duck today for Abhishek. Yet to open his account in this tournament. It's flat and sliding in at the stumps, probably not short enough to pull, he goes for it anyway and miscues it to mid-on. Right off the splice and no power behind it at all. What a start for Pakistan. Salman immediately points in the direction of one of his teammates, someone who suggested the move to him perhaps? He said in the presser yesterday that he wants Abhishek to play, and now he's got rid of him. Abhishek Sharma c Shaheen Afridi b Salman Agha 0(4)
