India was the favorite going into the match. They deserved that seeding, keeping Pakistan to 241 while Hardik Pandya played like he ought to be out of the game. An all-round player who can get rid of the opposition’s top batsman and then return to take out their top scorer is more than simply a name on the scoreboard. He is the key ingredient.
The cherry on top was Kuldeep Yadav. He made his extremely unique left-arm wristspin even more rare by figuring out how to go quickly through the air without sacrificing accuracy or rotation. This implies that hitters will constantly be guessing unless they choose him out of the hand. Three hitters from Pakistan made incorrect guesses. Each of the three was a wicket in the endovers. At the time, Pakistan was getting ready to blow up. Kuldeep just refused to let them to. His menace is unaffected by the damage.
Moments might be produced by Pakistan. Rohit Sharma’s stumps were broken by Shaheen Shah Afridi’s 143 kph inswinging yorker. To get rid of a furious Shubman Gill, Abrar Ahmed summoned a carrom ball from hell. However, they just were unable to capitalize on them. As a result, a world champion team that was known for saving games from certain death suddenly appears to be doing the first part correctly—they undoubtedly ran into problems in Dubai—but the crucial portion is going horribly wrong. The most inexperienced player on the Indian team dictated terms as Pakistan reached 151 for 2 in the 34th over before being bowled out for 241.
