High drama unfolded in the T20 World Cup as Suryakumar Yadav’s Team India handed Pakistan a humiliating 61-run defeat, reinforcing their status as favorites. The Sunday showdown in the India-Sri Lanka co-hosted event saw India set 176 after Ishan Kishan’s fireworks.
The young opener’s 77 off 40 balls, featuring a barrage of 10 fours and 3 sixes, propelled India to 175/7. Pakistan’s reply was a debacle, bowled out for 114 with Usman Khan’s 44 the lone bright spot amid a batting collapse.
The political spectrum echoed with praise. Central Minister JP Nadda commended the clinical execution of skills and team spirit on X, extending best wishes ahead.
Piyush Goyal marveled at the commanding field presence and synergy, proud of the world-beaters. Shivraj Singh Chouhan’s witty post mocked Pakistan’s cycle of hype and heartbreak, celebrating the victory as a sacred triumph.
Jyotiraditya Scindia spotlighted Kishan’s composure under pressure and bowling mastery, inching closer to history. Chirag Paswan saluted the comprehensive win that honored the nation.
Beyond the field, this result galvanizes support for India’s defense of the crown. With ministers’ endorsements amplifying the buzz, the team enters the next phase with unstoppable confidence and fan fervor.
