India vs Pakistan Highlights, World Cup 2023:

Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav each took four wickets in India’s resounding 2023 World Cup victory over their archrivals, Pakistan, on Saturday. Their contributions precipitated a startling collapse by the Pakistanis. With a spectator base exceeding 100,000 at Narendra Modi Stadium, the triumphant seven-wicket triumph over Pakistan marked India’s eighth consecutive triumph in the World Cup, a run that dated back to 1992. While Kuldeep took 2/35 in 10 overs and Bumrah took 2/19 in seven overs, Pakistan collapsed from 155/2 (29.3 overs) to 191 all out in 42.5 overs. Hardik Pandya, Mohammed Siraj, and Ravindra Jadeja all took two wickets, in addition to Kuldeep and Bumrah.

India vs Pakistan Live Score, World Cup: And that’s that!

World Cup Live Score: The long-awaited match between India and Pakistan has concluded, and the outcome was essentially predetermined more than two hours ago. Pakistan appeared poised to become the inaugural team to seriously contend with India in this tournament during the time that Babar and Rizwan were dominating. However, they managed to fall from 155/2 to the point where they were unable to even reach 200.

Subsequently, Rohit Sharma assumed his previous position against Afghanistan and continued the demolition, while Shreyas Iyer added the final touches to the dismissal. India have surpassed New Zealand to take the lead in the rankings. They are equal with the Kiwis on six points, but have the upper hand with a net run rate of +1.821. However, this may only be a transient lead, as their net run rate is only 2.360 points behind South Africa’s. The Proteas have a game in hand over India and will face the Netherlands on Tuesday for their third match.
