The Rohit Sharma-led India are showcasing flashes of brilliance, just like they were in last year's ODI World Cup. After winning their warm up match against Bangladesh, India continued their momentum in the T20 World Cup campaign opener against Ireland. Hardik Pandya's exceptional spell, claiming 3 wickets, combined with Arshdeep Singh's 2 wickets, restricted Paul Stirling's side to a mere 96/10 in 16 overs. Afterwards, the modest target of 97 runs was chased down by the men in blue in just 12.2 overs.
Pakistan, currently struggling to find their rhythm, have been experiencing inconsistent performances since the beginning of this year. Led by Babar Azam, the team suffered a setback in their opening match against newcomers USA, losing by 5 runs in a Super Over. Despite posting a total of 159/7 in 20 overs, Pakistan's efforts were surpassed by the hosts with only three wickets down.
