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

Saim Ayub to Tilak Varma, out Lbw!! He's missed it and that's plumb. Full and on the stumps, Tilak went for the sweep. Too full for the shot? No seems like it just bounced over the bat with some turn as Tilak was through the shot early. Impact in line with middle stump from round the wicket and when that happens it means it's straightened enough for the finger to go up. Tilak walks off without wasting the review. Ball-tracker says ball hitting a decent part of leg stump (ump's call) so he would have been out anyway. Tilak Varma lbw b Saim Ayub 25(24) [4s-2 6s-1]

Mohammad Nawaz to Tilak Varma, SIX, a shot that gets Tilak going? Has been subdued so far, didn't get much strike in the partnership with Kishan and now strikes his first six. It's tossed up wide of off, he reaches out, goes inside-out and carves it over extra cover. The timing takes it all the way!

Usman Tariq to Tilak Varma, 1 run, googly on off, drops it short but Tilak doesn't get his timing right on the pull. Drags it gently through square leg
