IND vs PAK T20 World Cup – 2021
Up to 2016, India’s record versus Pakistan in the World Cup’s shortened version was perfect. However, Pakistan has at last prevailed over Men in Blue in the historic match. At the Dubai International Cricket Ground, they defeated Team India for the first match by a margin of ten wickets. In the T20 World Cup 2021 group stage encounter, the Men in Green defeated Team India with ease.
IND vs PAK T20 World Cup – 2016
In a rain-shortened match, Pakistan’s top order took the pitch at a leisurely pace. With 50 runs in 66 balls, the top three placed the side on the back foot. Pakistan reached 118/5 in their 18 overs due to strikes from Umar Akmal (22 off 16) and Shoaib Malik (26 off 16). At the beginning, the Indian batting too appeared shaky; in less than five overs, the score was 23/3. Nevertheless, with a blistering 55 not out off 37 balls, Virat Kohli took command of the match. After reaching a half-century in this match, he knelt down in the spectators to pay homage to his idol, Sachin Tendulkar.

IND vs PAK T20 World Cup – 2014
India chose to bowl first after winning the toss. The two players who contributed the most to the team were Umar Akmal (33 off 30) and Ahmed Shehzad (22 off 17), with four of the top six batters having strike rates under 100. With statistics of 4-1-22-2, Amit Mishra bowled beautifully, but Pakistan could only muster 130 runs in 20 overs. To prevent any upsets, Virat Kohli (36* off 32), Suresh Raina (35* off 28), and Shikhar Dhawan (30 off 28) batted intelligently. In this match in Dhaka, Indian pacer Mohammed Shami made his debut and claimed the opponent’s most valuable wicket.
IND vs PAK T20 World Cup – 2012
With eight wickets remaining, the Indians chased down 129 in a one-sided match played in Colombo. After winning the toss, the Pakistan T20 team decided to bat first. They received several starts from their batsmen, but no one turned them into significant ones. They played a patchy innings and were eventually bunched out for 128. After Gautam Gambhir was out in the opening over of the second innings, Indian hitting took front stage. They won with three overs remaining thanks in large part to the solid backing of Yuvraj Singh (19* off 16) and Virender Sehwag (29 off 24) from Virat Kohli (78* off 61).
IND vs PAK T20 World Cup – 2007 (Final)
The world’s richest T20 league is credited to this game, or perhaps its outcome. In the 2007 T20 World Cup final in South Africa, India defeated Pakistan, and in 2008 the Indian Premier League (IPL) got underway. Let’s examine how MS Dhoni, a rookie captain, secured the victory. India chose to bat first after winning the toss. When it counted most, opener Gautam Gambhir came through with a blistering 75 off just 54 balls. The teenaged Rohit Sharma’s crucial undefeated innings of 30 runs off 16 balls was a major factor in the final team’s 157 runs scored in their 20 overs. Pakistan started the match with all guns blazing, but they were losing wickets consistently. With figures of 3/26 in his allotted four overs, RP Singh was the standout bowler. Misbah-ul-Haq nearly overtook Pakistan while keeping them in the hunt. We had the first-ever World T20 champions at the Bull Ring when Sreesanth caught his iconic scoop against Joginder Sharma at fine leg.
