India vs Pakistan LIVE Score, T20 World Cup 2024: Jasprit Bumrah Removes Babar Azam, Pakistan One Down In Chase

IND vs PAK Live: Pakistan in command

Four runs came off Ravindra Jadeja’s first over. Nothing on the surface for the spinner in the second innings as well. India’s chances in the game will depend a lot of how Ravindra Jadeja and Axar Patel bowl in this game.

PAK 42/1 (8)

India vs Pakistan Live: Economical over

PAK 38/1 (7)

IND vs PAK Live: End of powerplay

That is the end of six over and Pakistan are well ahead in the game at this point. The asking rate is 6.07 for them with nine wickets in hand. They are truly in the driving seat. India, on the other hand, need a couple of wickets to make a comeback. 

PAK 35/1 (6)

India vs Pakistan Live: Rizwan is hurt

Mohammad Rizwan copped a blow as a Hardik Pandya delivery hit him. The play has been stopped as Rizwan is currently receiving some treatment.

PAK 33/1 (5.4)

IND vs PAK Live: OUT!

Babar Azam is gone! That is a superb catch from Suryakumar Yadav and India get a much-needed breakthrough. Babar edged the good length ball and Suryakumar did an excellent job at first slip. He dived to complete the catch. 

PAK 26/1 (4.4)

India vs Pakistan Live: Economical over

Mohammed Siraj has conceded only two runs in his second over. The asking rate is around 6 for Pakistan so such over would not trouble them. Both Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan are taking their time at the middle.

PAK 21/0 (4)

IND vs PAK Live: Two catches dropped in 4 balls!

Mohammad Rizwan was dropped by Shivam Dube at fine leg on the fourth ball of Jasprit Bumrah’s over while Mohammed Siraj dropped Babar Azam on the first ball of the fourth over. While the return catch for Siraj was a tough one, that to Dube was an easy chance.

PAK 19/0 (3.1)

IND vs PAK Live: Siraj gives 6 runs

Mohammed Siraj has started with a six-run over. He tried to run-out Mohammad Rizwan on the final ball of the over while collecting the ball on follow through but his throw hit Rizwan on his hand. The Pakistan opener, meanwhile, stole a single. Siraj was quick to apologize for it and it all ended in a good spirit.

PAK 15/0 (2)

India vs Pakistan Live: 9-run over

Arshdeep Singh has started with a 9-run over. He didn’t look in complete control in the over and also there was no swing on the ball. The sun is out so the Indian bowlers will have to work hard for wickets on this surface now.

PAK 9/0 (1)

India vs Pakistan Live: 2nd innings begins

Arshdeep Singh has the new ball in hand. Mohammad Rizwan will face him for the first ball, Babar Azam is at the other end. Here we go…

IND vs PAK Live: India all out for 119

India are all out for 119 runs. Arshdeep Singh is run-out as the final Indian wicket. Pakistan must be happy from their bowling effort as they have stopped India to a below-par total on this surface. Yes, the pitch has offered fair amount of help to the pacer, but still it has been disppointing batting effort from India.

IND 119 (19)

India vs Pakistan Live: OUT!

Jasprit Bumrah is gone and Pakistan are only one wicket away from bundling out India. This is an embarrassing batting collpase for India.

IND 112/9 (17.5)

India vs Pakistan Live: OUT!

Hardik Pandya is OUT! Pakistan are bossing this game at the moment. Haris Rauf has got the wicket of Hardik Pandya. He bowled it fuller onto the pads of Pandya and the batter flicked it into the hands of Iftikhar Ahmed at deep square leg.  

IND 112/8 (17.4)

India vs Pakistan Live: End of Amir’s spell

Six runs came off the over. Mohammad Amir finishes his quota of four overs with figures of 2 for 23. A superb spell comes to an end. More three overs left in the innings and India need to get the maximum out of it to post a fighting total as this surface is a balanced one.

IND 106/7 (17)

IND vs PAK Live: FOUR!

Arshdeep Singh slams Mohammad Amir for a four. It was fuller bowled onto the stumps and Arshdeep hit it over the mid-on fielder for a four. Much needed boundary for India this is. 

IND 104/7 (16.1)

India vs Pakistan Live: OUT!

Another wicket for Amir and he is now on a hat-trick. The ball held onto the surface and that saw Ravindra Jadeja playing the ball right into the hands of the player at covers.

India vs Pakistan Live: Pant is GONE!

You live by he sword, you die by it! Pant went for a lofted shot and lost his wicket in the process. He hit the ball in the air before Babar Azam took the catch.

IND 96/6 (14.1)

India vs Pakistan Live: OUT!

Naseem Shah has got the better of Shivam Dube. It is a soft dismissal as Dube has played the ball back into the hands of Naseem and the latter took the offering. The ball stuck on the surface a bit and that saw Dube mistiming his shot.

IND 95/5 (13.2)

India vs Pakistan Live: OUT!

Suryakumar Yadav is gone! He never looked in his best of forms during his short stay and now loses his wicket after handing an easy catch to Mohamamd Amir at mid-off on the bowling of Haris Rauf. After taking the catch, Amir powerfully threw the ball on ground, making an eye-catching celebration.

IND 89/4 (11.2)

IND vs PAK Live: India steady

Rishabh Pant is nearing his half-century and India are in control at the moment. Suryakumar Yadav, who is batting at 7 runs off 6 balls, is slow according to his standards and he must be eager to pace his innings now.

India vs Pakistan Live: 4, 4, 4 – Pant magic

Rishabh Pant is boasting of his brilliance here. He slammed Haris Rauf for three consecutive fours in the 10th over. India have made a significant recovery here as the partnership between Pant and Suryakumar Yadav is now of 23 runs off 14 balls.

IND 81/3 (10)

IND vs PAK Live: Economical over

Imad Wasim has bowled a 6-run over. This is really smart bowling from Pakistan as they are using the ground dimensions beautifully. Rishabh Pant tried his level best to go for big shots but tight line and length helped Imad keeping him at bay.

IND 68/3 (9)

India vs Pakistan Live: BOWLED!

Axar Patel danced down the track to hit a big shot on Naseem Shah’s delivery but he missed it completely and that rattled his stumps. The crucial 39-run partnership has been broken and India are under pressure once again.

IND 58/3 (7.4)

India vs Pakistan Live: FOUR!

Axar Patel dances down the track and lofts the Iftikhar Ahmed delivery for a four down the ground. Despite that four and a wide in it, only 7 runs came off the over as Iftikhar bowled smartly.

IND 57/2 (7)

India vs Pakistan Live: Another catch dropped!

Rishabh Pant got another live in the Mohammad Amir over. He edged the second ball high in the air but Usman Khan, who was running behind from covers, failed to take the catch. A total of 12 runs came off the over and India have had a good powerplay despite losing two wickets.

IND 50/2 (6)

India vs Pakistan Live: Edged and FOUR!

It was a fuller ball from Mohammad Amir and Rishabh Pant went for a flasy drive. He got an edge of his bat on it and the ball burst through Iftikhar’s hands for a four. 

India vs Pakistan Live: FOUR! SIX!

Axar Patel got a thick bottom edge on a good length ball of Shaheen Afridi that ran away for a four. On the next ball, Axar was waiting the crease and Shaheen bowled a short ball outside off stump. Axar played an upper cut on it for a six. 

IND 34/2 (4.2)

IND vs PAK Live: Pakistan in driving seat

This is sensational bowling stuff from Pakistan. This was always round the corner, given the overcast conditions on offer and Pakistan’s quality bowling attack. India need a good partnership to bounce back in the game. All eyes on Rishabh Pant, who is coming on the back of a good IPL 2024 season.

IND 24/2 (4)

India vs Pakistan Live: OUT!

Another big wicket for Pakistan and India are in serious trouble now. It was a fuller ball from Shaheen Afridi swinging into Rohit Sharma and the India skipper lost his wicket to it. Rohit flicked the ball in the air before Haris Rauf took the catch at square leg after running from backward square leg. Rohit is gone for 13 runs off 12 balls.

IND 19/2 (2.4)

IND vs PAK Live: Rohit solid

Later in the over of Naseem Shah, Rohit Sharma slammed a four. He got a poor delivery on the pads. It was a fuller ball from Naseem and Rohit slammed it away for a four. He flicked it past the short fine leg fielder. 

IND 19/1 (2)

IND vs PAK Live: BIG WICKET!

Virat Kohli is gone for 4 runs off 3 balls. He has hit a Naseem Shah delivery to the fielder at sweeper cover. It was a good length ball outside off stump and Kohli chased it. He wanted to hit it over the point fielder but found Usman Khan there. Big blow for India this is! 

IND 12/1 (1.3)

IND vs PAK Live: Umpires are out on ground

An inspection is underway. The umpires are walking to the ground with their umbrellas in hand. It seems that there is no rain at this moment. However, the square is still under cover. Let’s wait and see what the umpires say. Currently, they are having a long discussion with ground staff it seems. As I type, the covers are also coming off.

IND vs PAK Live: The rain is heavy

It was slight drizzle at the start but the rain has gotten heavier now. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are comfortably sitting in the dugout. Meanwhile, the fans are finding it hard to cope with the rain as majority of the ground’s stand is uncovered.

India vs Pakistan Live: Rain returns

The rain has returned. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma are running back to the dugout, hiding their bats from the rain. The Pakistan players are also coming off the ground.

IND vs PAK Live: SIX!

Shaheen Afridi bowled a fuller ball on the stumps and Rohit Sharma flicked it away for a six. That came on the third ball of the over. What followed were three dot balls on trot. On the last ball, there was even an appeal for LBW against Rohit, but the India skipper survived as umpire was unconvinced with the appeal. 

IND 8/0 (1)

IND vs PAK Live: Match begins!

A fuller ball from Shaheen Afridi on the pads of Rohit Sharma and the India captain flicks it for a couple.

IND vs PAK Live: Rohit, Virat walk to the middle

The national anthems are done and the Pakistan players have spread on the ground. Virat Kohli and Rohit Sharma walk out to the middle with the captain being on strike. Shaheen Afridi is with the new ball in hand.
