class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Both teams had already played two group games. India sat on top of the table unbeaten. Pakistan needed a result badly to keep their Super 8 hopes alive. The pitch at R. Premadasa looked slow and grippy, the kind that usually helps spinners. Salman Agha won the toss for Pakistan and chose to bowl first, thinking their spinners would do the damage under lights. That call did not work out.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Indias_Explosive_Batting_in_the_Pak_vs_India_Today_Match\"><\/span>India&#8217;s Explosive Batting in the Pak vs India Today Match<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">India opened with Abhishek Sharma and Ishan Kishan. Abhishek lasted just four balls before Salman Agha got him caught at short cover for a duck. Score read 1 for 1, and Pakistan fans started shouting early. Then Ishan Kishan walked in and changed the mood in a hurry. He hit the first ball he faced for six and kept going. Boundaries flew in every direction. By the time he got out, he had smashed 77 off just 40 balls with ten fours and three sixes. The guy looked unstoppable on that tricky surface.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tilak Varma came next and played sensibly for 25 off 24. Suryakumar Yadav, the captain, added 32 off 29 and kept the scoreboard ticking. Shivam Dube smacked 27 off 17, including a couple of big sixes, before getting run out. Rinku Singh walked in late and smashed 11 not out off four balls with one four and one six. Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel both got out for zero at the death, but it didn\u2019t matter. India finished at 175 for 7 in 20 overs. On that pitch, 175 looked like a mountain.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Here\u2019s how India batted in the Pak vs India match:<\/b><\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td><b>Batsman<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Dismissal<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Runs<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>Balls<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>4s<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>6s<\/b><\/td>\n<td><b>SR<\/b><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Ishan Kishan \u2020<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">b Saim Ayub<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">77<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">40<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">10<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">192.50<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Abhishek Sharma<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">c Shaheen Shah Afridi b Salman Agha<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0.00<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Tilak Varma<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">lbw b Saim Ayub<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">25<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">24<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">2<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">104.16<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Suryakumar Yadav (c)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">c Saim Ayub b Usman Tariq<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">32<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">29<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">110.34<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Hardik Pandya<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">c Babar Azam b Saim Ayub<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0.00<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Shivam Dube<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">run out (Mohammad Nawaz\/\u2020Usman Khan)<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">27<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">17<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">3<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">158.82<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Rinku Singh<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">not out<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">11<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">4<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">275.00<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Axar Patel<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">c Saim Ayub b Shaheen Shah Afridi<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">1<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0<\/span><\/td>\n<td><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">0.00<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n<p><b>Extras<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: 3 (lb 2, w 1)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Total<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: 175\/7 in 20 overs (run rate 8.75)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><b>Wickets fell at<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: 1-1 (0.6 ov), 2-88 (8.4), 3-126 (14.2), 4-126 (14.3), 5-159 (18.5), 6-175 (19.5), 7-175 (19.6)<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Pakistan\u2019s bowlers tried everything.

Saim Ayub lbw for 6, Salman Agha caught for 4. Suddenly, it was 13 for 3 after just two overs.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Babar Azam lasted seven balls for five runs before Axar Patel bowled him. Usman Khan tried to hold things together and scored 44 off 34 balls with six fours and one six, but he had no support. One by one, the others fell. Shadab Khan made 14, Faheem Ashraf 10, Shaheen Afridi hung around for 23 not out, but it was way too late. Pakistan folded for 114 all out in 18 overs.

Ishan Kishan got the player of the match, and nobody argued. His innings on that slow pitch were the difference between a tight game and a thrashing. Bumrah and Hardik set the tone with the new ball, then the spinners just squeezed the life out of Pakistan\u2019s middle order. Pakistan\u2019s top order folded again, and that has become a pattern they cannot shake off.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">India now sits comfortably in the Super 8s with a game left in the group. Their net run rate got a nice boost, too. Pakistan faces an uphill task to stay in the tournament. The 8-1 record India now holds against Pakistan in T20 World Cups tells its own story.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"FAQs\"><\/span>FAQs<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">\n<div class=\"blog_faq\">\n                <div class=\"faq\">\n            <h3 class=\"faq_title\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Who_actually_won_the_India_vs_Pak_match_on_15_February_2026\"><\/span>Who actually won the India vs Pak match on 15 February 2026?  <i class=\"fa fa-plus\"><\/i><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3> \n                        <div class=\"faq_description\">\n                <p>India won by 61 runs.

India looked sharp in every department while Pakistan struggled to put together even one solid partnership. The crowd that came for a close contest went home early, but the ones watching on screens still got their money\u2019s worth from Ishan Kishan\u2019s batting and India\u2019s clinical bowling.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This rivalry keeps pulling everyone back in. No matter how many times we see it, the next Pak vs India match always feels like the biggest game on the calendar. India has the upper hand for now, but cricket has a way of turning things around when you least expect it. Until the next one, this 61-run win in Colombo stays fresh in the memory.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">    \t<hr class=\"mt-5\">\n        <div class=\"custom_CTA mt-5\">\n            <div class=\"row\">\n                <div class=\"col-lg-7 align-self-center text-lg-left text-center\">\n                    <h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Start_Browsing_Privately\"><\/span>Start Browsing Privately!<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n                    <p clas=\"mb-0\">iProVPN encrypts your data for protection against hackers and surveillance.
