The match faced an early interruption due to rain after the completion of the first over. Once play resumed, India lost their first wicket at 12 runs when Virat Kohli was caught off Naseem Shah’s delivery for 4 runs. The second wicket fell at 19 runs as Indian captain Rohit Sharma was caught out by Shaheen Afridi. India's third wicket fell at 58 runs with Kareen Patel scoring 20 runs before being bowled by Naseem Shah. The fourth wicket fell at 89 runs when Suryakumar Yadav was caught out by Haris Rauf after scoring 7 runs.
India's fifth wicket fell at 95 runs when Shivam Dube was dismissed by Naseem Shah for 3 runs, marking Naseem Shah's third wicket of the match. Following this, India's sixth and seventh wickets also fell quickly, further hampering their innings.
Indian captain Rohit Sharma aimed to set a challenging target for Pakistan, but the team's batting lineup has struggled against Pakistan's disciplined bowling attack.
With India’s batting faltering, Pakistan aims to capitalize on the situation and restrict India to a low total, making the most of their strong bowling performance so far.
