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

Axar Patel to Usman Khan, out Stumped!! He was itching to attack Axar Patel and the bowler had a close eye on the batter as to what the trigger movement was. Usman left the crease a tad bit early. Axar fired this short and got some bounce on it to take it past Usman's aggressive slap. Ishan Kishan had to get his hands high to collect and he had enough time to ignite the stumps as Usman was a logn way out. So the lone Pakistan batter who looked like he could do something is gone. SKY gives Axar Patel a warm hug. In fact the UltraEdge replay shows a spike when the ball passed the bat so Usman edged that as well. Usman Khan st Ishan Kishan b Axar Patel 44(34) [4s-6 6s-1]
