NEW DELHI: India managed to post a competitive total of 266 against arch-rivals Pakistan in their Asia Cup clash on Saturday. The innings was marked by a remarkable rescue act by Hardik Pandya and Ishan Kishan, who battled through a fiery opening spell from Shaheen Shah Afridi.
The early stages of the Indian innings were fraught with danger as Pakistan's pace duo, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Haris Rauf, combined forces to send Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli back to the pavilion. India found themselves at a precarious 66 for 4 in just 14.1 overs.
