2025 Champions Trophy top run-getters and wicket-takers after Pakistan vs India match (Updated) ft. Virat Kohli and Kuldeep Yadav

The Champions Trophy witnessed a highly anticipated clash between India and Pakistan at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, Dubai on Sunday, February 23. India emerged victorious, comfortably defeating Pakistan by six wickets to keep their playoff hopes alive.

India lost the toss for the 12th consecutive time, with Pakistan opting to bat first. However, Pakistan's batting struggled under pressure, with partnerships failing to gain momentum as key wickets fell.

Saud Shakeel and Mohammad Rizwan contributed significantly, adding 104 runs together with Shakeel scoring 62 and Rizwan 46. Khushdil Shah attempted to steady the ship but was eventually dismissed, and Pakistan were bowled out for 241.

Kuldeep Yadav led the Indian attack, picking up three wickets, while Hardik Pandya supported with two wickets. Harshit Rana, Ravindra Jadeja, and Axar Patel each claimed one wicket.

In reply, India chased down the target with ease. Shubman Gill made 46 runs, and the in-form duo of Virat Kohli and Shreyas Iyer forged an essential 114-run partnership. Iyer notched up his 21st ODI fifty, scoring 56 off 67 balls before being dismissed by an excellent catch from Imam-ul-Haq.

Virat Kohli, in his trademark style, guided India to victory with his 51st ODI century. The Men in Blue successfully reached the target with seven overs to spare, securing a six-wicket win and qualifying for the playoffs. The loss dealt a blow to Pakistan, who were eliminated from the playoff race.
