Hardik Pandya and Ishan Kishan combined in a 138-run fifth wicket stand off 141 balls to help India overcome a top-order wobble and reach 266 against Pakistan in their Asia Cup match on Saturday. In doing so, the pair registered the highest partnership for fifth-wicket or below for India against Pakistan.
Kishan (82 off 81 balls) and Pandya (87 off 90 balls) kept Pakistan bowlers at bay to give the Men in Blue a fine chance to make a winning start to the tournament. They joined forces after Pakistan pacers Afridi, who accounted for Rohit Sharma and Virat Kohli early, and Haris Rauf combined to reduce India to 66 for 4 in 14.1 overs.
