Though the match proved less a thriller than what was once tipped to be but rain played its part. Though rain intervened a lot in Birmingham still India had an upper hand on their rivals from the offset.
India posted a total in excess of 319/3, as all four of their top order batsmen scored half-centuries. Yuvraj’s Singh’s quickfire 50 and Pandya’s heroics led India to a great total. The remainings were done by the Indian bowlers and Jadeja’s great fielding.
The already stiff target became even tougher for Pakistan, as a third lengthy rain interval meant they had to score 289 runs in 41 overs to win the match. No batsman could deliver well, as Azhar was sent back in 9th over by Bhuvneshwar Kumar. Umesh Yadav too left no stones unturned to pounce on the opposition, taking three wickets and even before the blink-of-an-eye the whole team went back to the pavilion giving India the first taste of the win. Pakistan’s innings came to a close in the 34th over, as the injured Wahab Riaz didn’t bat.
India next faces Sri Lanka on 8th June at The Oval.
