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

Shaheen Afridi to Axar Patel, out Caught by Saim Ayub!! Axar Patel loses shape on the slog, the bat turns in his hands and deep mid-wicket runs in to take a great diving catch. Just 1 run off the last 2 balls and that will please Pakistan. Shaheen went for a full delivery, was there to be hit but the connection wasn't right from Axar. Axar Patel c Saim Ayub b Shaheen Afridi 0(1)

Shaheen Afridi to Rinku Singh, out Shivam Dube Run Out!! 1 run completed. Oh confusion and Dube is out. Rinku slapped this short of length delivery over cover. Sweeper cuts it off. Dube thought the second was on so he charged. Rinku said no and Dube had to reverse and stretch full length. Nawaz fired a good throw to the keeper who caught him well short. Dube not happy with Rinku. Did he stretch his hamstring? But he seems fine as he jogs off the field. The third ump wasn't needed. Shivam Dube run out (Mohammad Nawaz/Usman Khan) 27(17) [4s-3 6s-1]

Shaheen Afridi to Rinku Singh, SIX, this guy is a great finisher if you offer pace. Absolute slot ball from Shaheen Afridi as he misses the yorker. Rinku gets under it and smokes it high and handsome over mid-wicket

Shaheen Afridi to Rinku Singh, FOUR, what was that? He just casually played with one hand and managed to get four for it! Slower delivery into the wicket, sat up and had a lot of width. Rinku was early into the shot to the bottom hand came off the handle. He went for a slap with one hand and sliced it over backward point

Shaheen Afridi to Shivam Dube, 1 run, now he mistimes the loft along the ground to long-off

Shaheen Afridi to Shivam Dube, FOUR, but Shaheen Afridi dishes out a slower delivery right in the slot for Dube to belt down the ground. Picked the slower ball early, waited to bring his bat down and drilled that hard along the ground for a boundary pretty straight

Shaheen Afridi to Tilak Varma, FOUR, edged and four! Cracking outswinger from Shaheen! Fuller than a good length outside off, shapes away, draws Tilak into a tentative poke and his feet have gone nowhere. Healthy edge goes past the fielder at wide slip

Shaheen Afridi to Tilak Varma, no run, full and swinging away outside off, Tilak opens the face and guides it to backward point

Shaheen Afridi to Tilak Varma, no run, cutting in from back of a length, 140kph, Tilak hangs back and defends from the crease

Shaheen Afridi to Ishan Kishan, 1 run, slower short ball outside off, Kishan drags the pull away to deep backward square

Shaheen Afridi to Ishan Kishan, FOUR, nearly dragged on! Again he goes for the pull but the ball isn't as short this time. It's back of a length, Kishan gets a thick under-edge and it runs away past the stumps

Shaheen Afridi to Ishan Kishan, SIX, he couldn't have struck that any better! Right off the screws from Ishan Kishan as he pulls Shaheen's first ball into the crowd. It's dug in on a short of length, Kishan gets into good position, transfers his weight back and nails it over square leg
