India beat Pakistan by 6 runs: Men’s T20 World Cup 2024 – as it happened

The match that everyone in the cricketing world had circled on their calendars ended up delivering a thrilling contest!

India, despite a subpar total of 119 on a tricky wicket, managed to beat Pakistan by six runs.

Pakistan, who looked in complete control in the first half of the innings, began to lose their way in the second.

Through a combination of disciplined bowling, ill-advised shots and dot ball pressure, their innings began to unravel.

This result now leaves them in a situation where they must win against both Canada and Ireland in order to have a chance at qualification into the Super Eights stage.

Mind you, USA and India both have four points after their two games, so they will certainly have something to say about that.
