Rohit Sharma hit a 63-ball 86 while Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav, Ravindra Jadeja, Hardik Pandya and Mohammed Siraj picked two wickets apiece as India maintained a clean slate against Pakistan in ODI World Cups.
India have now defeated Pakistan in all 8 matches between the two teams in ODI World Cups. India had won in 1992, 1996, 1999, 2003, 2011, 2015 and 2019 before recording an emphatic victory on Saturday at the Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad in the 2023 World Cup.
Rohit Sharma was dismissed for a duck against Australia in India’s tournament opener on October 8 but he has since been in sensational form. He hit a record breaking hundred (131 off 84 balls) against Afghanistan on October 11; he went past Sachin Tendulkar for most hundreds in ODI World Cups and smashed the fastest World Cup hundred by an Indian.
