India faced a middle-order setback against Pakistan in the T20 World Cup 2026 match in Colombo after losing Tilak Varma and Hardik Pandya on successive balls. Spinner Saim Ayub removed Tilak with an LBW decision when the batter missed a sweep. On the next ball, Hardik was caught at long-off by Babar Azam after mistiming a shot. Ayub nearly completed a hat-trick but Shivam Dube survived. At that stage, India were 127 for 4 after 15 overs. Suryakumar Yadav stayed at the crease with Dube and carried the scoring role. Earlier, Ishan Kishan gave India a fast start with a 27-ball half-century. (PC: NDTV)
