A controversial waist-high full-toss call by square-leg umpire Marais Erasmus, which went for a six from Virat Kohli’s willow was followed by three bye runs after Kohli was clean bowled by Mohammad Nawaz on the free-hit, allowed India to achieve the 160-run target off the final ball after they required 16 runs off the last over.
Nonetheless, Pakistan should never have been in this situation in the first place after they held the match by the scruff of its neck after reducing India to 31 for four in 6.1 overs. And then limiting the traditional rivals to 112 for four after 17 overs, needing 48 runs from three overs.
Shaheen Shah Afridi conceded 17 runs in the 18th and Haris Rauf, after conceding three runs in four balls, went for successive sixes as the target came down from 28 runs in eight balls to 16 runs in six balls.
In the end, Kohli returned unconquered on 82 from 53 balls with six fours and four sixes, and together with Pandya, added 113 runs in 78 balls.
