Pakistan make a mauka-ry of critics, beat India for 1st time in World Cup fixture

DUBAI, OCT 24: Pakistan made history on Sunday night, defeating India for the first time in World Cup fixture and ending a painful jinx that first began in 1992.

Chasing 152, captain Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan batted till start to finish as they made India’s ‘world class’ bowling attack look ordinary for once.

Earlier, Shaheen Shah Afridi took three wickets, including skipper Virat Kohli for 57, but India managed 151 for seven in their high-voltage Twenty20 World Cup clash.

Left-arm fast bowler Afridi returned figures of 3-31 after a lethal first spell to hurt India after they elected to field first in the Super 12s encounter in Dubai.
