Team India secured a terrific win against Pakistan by six runs in the highly-anticipated Men’s T20 World Cup match at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium. India bowling star Jasprit Bumrah’s sensational bowling of 3-14, including 15 dot balls helped India successfully defend low total of 119 to beat the Babar Azam Army.
While Jasprit Bumrah showed why he’s one of the best bowlers in the world, he helped India claw their way back in, taking out Mohammad Rizwan. On the other hand, Rishabh Pant also played well and top-scored 42 off just 31 balls.
Chasing 120, Babar Azam began with a punchy on-drive off Siraj, while Rizwan was dropped on seven by Bumrah. Babar later pulled Bumrah for four, before the fast bowler had the last laugh when his ball got extra bounce and seam movement to take his outside edge to the first slip.

Later, India bounced back on the first ball after drink breaks as Axar trapped Usman. With boundaries not coming, India continued to increase the pressure on Pakistan. Despite Naseem Shah’s tough battle, India ensured they pulled off a remarkable heist to seal a memorable win over Pakistan.
Naseem was left heartbroken after the humiliating loss and was seen crying on the field after the Green Army fell short in a thrilling encounter while chasing a modest target of 120. Despite valiant efforts, including two boundaries, Naseem was unable to secure victory for his team.
The fast bowler from Pakistan coulld not hold back his tears because of the heavy loss. Then, Rohit Sharma, India's captain known as the "Hitman," comforted him. Rohit's kindness and sportsmanship have been touching hearts, especially his gesture towards Naseem.
