When he came to the match, India was in trouble during the 160 chase, but Kohli played an anchor role first, then he took the mantle to hit the big ones, and in the end it was his class that helped India get past Pakistan .
Earlier, Arshdeep Singh and Hardik Pandya each took three wickets while India limited Pakistan to 159/8 in 20 overs.
For Pakistan, Shan Masood and Iftikhar Ahmad managed to score half a century respectively as their side reached a fight total, after the reliable opening pair of captain Babar Azam and wicket-keeper Mohammad Rizwan were sent back early by India’s young tempo sensation Arshdeep Singh.
