The First Blow
Pakistan had stable start to the chase but their batsmen lacked the zeal and solidity that India opening pair showed at the start.
Ahmed Shehzad and Azhar Ali weren’t looking the best of the pairs out there. The uneasiness to chase the target was visible and it was a just matter of one delivery when Shehzad tried to play across the line with his one foot stamped on the crease, as a solid rock, which became the ultimate aim of Bhuveshwar Kumar’s delivery and he had to got back because it was found to in front of the stumps. Pakistan did not review it and a what could have been a solid start was wasted by them.
