NEW DELHI: India crushed archrivals Pakistan by 228 runs in a Super Four round match of the Asia Cup in Colombo on Monday. Virat Kohli and KL Rahul struck unbeaten centuries to steer India to a commanding 356/2 - the team's highest total against Pakistan in ODI cricket. Pakistan were all out for 128 runs in 32 overs for their second biggest ODI defeat.
On Sunday, as the heavens opened up, India found themselves at 147/2 in 24.1 overs, bringing an abrupt halt to the much-anticipated encounter. The match resumed on Monday (reserve day) with Kohli and Rahul coming out to bat for India. On Monday too, rain disrupted the game for a little more than an hour when Pakistan was batting.
