India chased down a good total of 160 runs against Pakistan in a thrilling game of the tournament. Virat Kohli stole the show with his impressive 82-run stand and single-handedly gave India the victory. It was the most thrilling game of the tournament so far. Indian openers and middle order departed pretty quickly without any substantial runs. They will be looking to change that and have a better performance against minnows Netherlands.
