IND vs PAK Asia Cup 2023: Top Viral Memes Which You Shouldn't Miss

India and Pakistan squared off in a highly anticipated Asia Cup 2023 matchup. Pakistan won the coin and elected to field first after deciding to do so. The Indian openers, Rohit Sharma and Shubman Gill, gave their team a tremendous start, displaying some extraordinary strokes that left the Pakistani bowlers struggling. However, the game on September 10 was interrupted by rain, and it resumed on September 11.

After the Indian openers were dismissed, KL Rahul and Virat Kohli established a formidable fourth-wicket partnership. Rahul scored 111 runs while Kohli contributed 122. Their partnership totaled a remarkable 233 runs, with Kohli striking nine fours and three sixes and Rahul hitting 12 fours and two sixes.

In pursuit of the goal set by India, Pakistan faced a daunting challenge. Their openers struggled against the extraordinary bowling of India's new ball bowlers, especially Jasprit Bumrah, who made effective use of his swing, pace, and bounce. The Pakistani batsmen struggled to deal with these challenging conditions.

Kuldeep Yadav was India's most effective bowler, taking five wickets while allowing only 25 runs in eight overs. Furthermore, Bumrah, Hardik Pandya, and Shardul Thakur each took one wicket. Fakhar Zaman was Pakistan's highest scorer with 27 runs off 50 deliveries, including two fours, and he was unable to offer much resistance to India's impressive bowling attack.

Due to injuries, Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf were unable to bat as Pakistan's innings ended with a meager 128 runs. India won the match by a comfortable margin of 228 runs.Looking forwards, on September 12, India will face Sri Lanka, while Pakistan will wait for their match against Sri Lanka on September 14.
