Kohli gets to his 51st ODI ton with a boundary and shows to the dressing room that he had everything covered.

India win the match with that boundary as well.

He comes and goes. A boundary and then goes for another big shot. 

Shaheen Afridi gets him. 

India though are cruising here. 

Imam dives to his right and gets the catch. 

But Iyer has done his job. He goes after 56 from 67 balls. 

India need 27 runs in 66 balls.

He is proving why he is rated so high! 

No doubt he is India's best No.4 in ODI format.

Shreyas Iyer gets to his fifty in 63 balls. Calm and composed inning. 

India need 68 runs from 18.3 overs. Iyer (40 from 46 balls) and Kohli (65 off 77) are making it look easy now. 

In the zone 👑

ODI FIFTY number 7⃣4⃣ for Virat Kohli 👏👏#TeamIndia 132/2 in the 27th over

7-19-1!

This is what the scoreboard says for Abrar Ahmed!

Shreyas Iyer and Virat Kohli have struggled a bit against the spinner and Pakistan can feel if they can get a wicket here, they will be back in the game.

What a delivery to get the No. 1 ODI batter! He gives Gill a send-off as well.

Gill was completely beaten there as his stumps were rattled. 

India 100/2. Gill goes for 46 from 52 balls. 

India cross 100 in just 17.2 overs with nearly a run-a-ball ball run rate.

A brilliant yorker from @iShaheenAfridi to end the opening stand in the fifth over! 🎯

— Pakistan Cricket (@TheRealPCB) February 23, 2025

Terrific start for India with the bat.

Rohit (20 off 15) gave another quick start and after his dismissal, Shubman Gill and Virat Kohli have continued the run flow.

India 64/1 after 10. 

Harshit to bowl the final over. Khushdil on strike. A couple of dot balls as Khushdil doesn’t want to take the single.

Slower yorker and Khushdil can’t even put bat on ball. Three dot balls to start the final over. OUT! Khushdil is caught at deep midwicket. 

PAK 241 all out in 49.4 overs.

Swung away on the leg-side by Rauf to deep midwicket. He hares for a second and looks like he is run out at the non-striker’s end. 

PAK 241/9 in 49 overs.

Banged short and Rauf pulls this over deep square-leg for a maximum. 

Shami is greeted with a maximum. Khushdil stays still in his crease and pulls this over deep midwicket for a maximum. Cracking shot. 

Just five runs from the over.

Haris Rauf the new man in. A single is on offer off the last ball but Khushdil sends Haris back. 

PAK 227/8 in 48 overs.

Another record for Virat Kohli.

Kohli now holds the record for most catches by an Indian fielder in ODIs. That was his 157th catch in the format.

Chipped to long off and Kuldeep Yadav gets his third wicket.

PAK 222/8 in 47 overs.

Seven runs from the over including a leg-bye. 

PAK 219/7 in 46 overs.

Just six runs from the over with the help of ones and twos.

Pakistan will at least need another 30 runs off the last five to make a match of this. 

PAK 212/7 in 45 overs.

He guides the ball to deep third for a single and keeps the strike. 

PAK 206/7 in 44 overs.

Around the wicket to Khushdil. A single for the left-hander at deep midwicket. FOUR!

Outside edge, past the keeper and a streaky boundary for Naseem. 

Naseem Shah comes in and defends the hat-trick ball to deny Kuldeep. 

Salman is gone. He gets a leading edge after stepping out to heave this on leg-side and Jadeja settles under the ball at cover. 

Consecutive wickets for Kuldeep as Shaheen is caught in front of the stumps off the backfoot.

Given by the umpire straightway and Shaheen goes upstairs. That was a horrible review as this is hitting middle of middle stump. 

Axar ends with 1/50 in 10 overs. 

First maximum of the innings as Khushdil sweeps this over deep midwicket.

It looked like it went too high off the top edge but it eventually also went the distance. 

Salman gets a top edge on the reverse-sweep and that falls short of the man at short third. LBW appeal as Salman misses a reverse-sweep. Stifled appeal and Rohit goes upstairs.

Salman will survive as this is just kissing leg-stump - umpire’s call goes in Pakistan’s favour.

Five singles from the over. PAK 188/5 in 41 overs

Two more for Salman with a sweep behind square to end the over. 

PAK 183/5 in 40 overs.

A couple for Salman through fine-leg. 

Reverse-sweep from Khushdil through cover. Shreyas and Rohit chase and Shreyas dives to keep it down to three.

Rohit looks to be in some discomfort as he clutches his hamstring. 

PAK 177/5 in 39 overs.

Just three singles from the over. 

Good length ball on middle from Jadeja, turns away a touch to beat Tahir’s attempted dab to third-man, and the ball crashes into off-stump. 

Khushdil Shah comes in. 

Five singles from the over as Tahir and Salman get in their groove. 

PAK 165/4 in 36 overs.

Shakeel holes out at deep midwicket. 

Two wickets in quick succession and Pakistan has lost both its set batters on the cusp of the death overs. 

PAK 160/4 in 35 overs.

Pulled away to the deep square-leg boundary by Shakeel. 

A low full toss and Shakeel misses out on a scoring opportunity, flicking it to mid-on. 

Shakeel slog sweeps this high in the air and Kuldeep spills the chance at deep midwicket.

That was a very low chance but Kuldeep should have held on to it. 

PAK 154/3 in 34 overs.

Axar bowled out Rizwan. Salman Ali Agha is the next man in. 

Launched very high in the air by Rizwan and Harshit Rana drops it at wide long-on. 

PAK 150/2 in 33 overs.

Slow bouncer and that is too high - called wide.

A cutter outside off stump and it beats Rizwan as he looks to cut it. 

Just five runs from the over. 

PAK 142/2 in 32 overs.

Shakeel backs away very late and Jadeja fires it into off-stump. The batter apologises. 

A single to end the over and that’s 50 for Shakeel, off 63 balls.

PAK 137/2 in 31 overs.

FOUR! Scooped behind by Shakeel to the boundary. 

Shakeel misses the reverse-sweep off the last ball of the over.

Another appeal, not given, and Rohit will not review. 

PAK 129/2 in 30 overs.

Five singles and a loud lbw appeal off the last ball.

Umpire doesn’t give it out and Rohit doesn’t take the review.

Definitely missing leg-stump as Shakeel missed the flick on leg-side. 

PAK 126/2 in 29 overs.

A quick single by Rizwan, and a direct-hit at the bowler’s end but he has easily made his ground.

Shakeel pulls this to deep square-leg for a couple to end the over. 

Heaved away by Rizwan and it just falls short of the fielder at midwicket. 

Rizwan with a flat-batted sweep and he finds the boundary at deep midwicket. Another sweep next ball and a couple this time for Rizwan. 

PAK 116/2 in 27 overs.

Shakeel reverse sweeps this to the boundary behind point. Hundred up for Pakistan in 25.3 overs. FOUR! Another boundary to end the over. 

PAK 107/2 in 26 overs.

Rizwan sweeps and finally finds the fence towards square leg! Fifty-run partnership off 91 balls.

Five runs came in that over. 

PAK 99/2 in 25 overs.

Rizwan attempts sweeps off the first two balls but can’t connect it well.

Takes a single off the third ball. Direct hit and Rizwan could’ve been in trouble.

But he’s inside the crease, so not out. Four singles in that over.

PAK 94/2 in 24 overs.

Shakeel cuts past point but Kuldeep chases the ball well and doesn’t let it cross the rope, three runs. Four came in that over.

PAK 90/2 in 23 overs. 

Three singles off the first four balls. Kuldeep hasn’t found his length today.

Three dot balls on the trot. A single to end the over. A single to end the over.

Three singles in that over. 

PAK 77/2 in 19 overs.

India has put on a choke-hold. 

PAK 74/2 in 18 overs.

Rohit Sharma is back on the field. This will see Shubman Gill returning to the duties of vice-captain.

Axar Patel will continue to bowl from his end.

Just 2 runs in the over.

PAK 72/2 in 17 overs.

Better over for Pakistan as Rizwan, Shakeel rotate the strike on three occasions. 

PAK 70/2 in 16 overs.

Axar Patel to Shakeel, ramps the ball over keeper, smart shot. 

Just two singles in the over. 

PAK 63/2 in 15 overs.

Nearly five overs since the last boundary was scored. India has been splendid with the ball.

Dot balls are piling up for Pakistan. Just two singles in that over. India has been too good with the ball. 

PAK 61/2 in 14 overs.

India need another wicket here to bowl out Pakistan early. Bangladesh were reeling at 32/5 at one stage but they still went on to breach the 200-run mark.

Another couple of wickets here will give India a chance to dismiss the Men in Green under a score of 200.

Runs have dried up for Pakistan. It is hot as well in Dubai.

Just one run in the over.

Down the leg and Shakeel tucks it away past keeper for four off the first ball. It is given as leg bye. 

Hardik. Four!! Another boundary for Babar as he leans on to another cover drive. OUT!

Another attempted drive and this time he gets an outside edge straight to keeper. First wicket for India.

Hardik Starts well, outside off and Babar is happy to leave.

Down the leg wide, eighth wide bowled by Indian bowlers today. 

Hardik Pandya to Babar Azam, No run.

Another terrific delivery by Harshit and goes very close to the outside edge. He’s bowling well so far, good pace as well. Down the leg wide.

Harshit beats Imam off the first ball. 

Midway through the first powerplay, as Pakistan are on 25/0 in 5 overs.

Babar beautifully played the shot to the cover for another boundary against Rana.

Pakistan has set a target of 106 runs for India. Nida Dar has played the highest innings of 28 runs.

The eighth blow to Pakistan was given by Arundhati Reddy. She made Nida Dar, who was in good form, her victim.

Nida scored 28 off 34 balls.

Pakistan's batting order is falling apart like a pack of cards. Till now, Nida Dar is the only batsman for them who has made an individual score of more than 20. To support them, Syeda is present at the crease after scoring 11 runs. After 18 overs the team's score is 89/7.

Shreyanka Patil gave the seventh blow to Pakistan. Tuba Hassan returned to the pavilion without opening the account. 

Syeda Aroob Shah has come in to bat at number nine. Whereas, Nida Dar is present at the crease.

Pakistan captain Fatima Sana returned to the pavilion after scoring 13 runs. Asha Shobhana made her the victim.

There was a partnership of 18 runs between Nida Dar and Sana for the sixth wicket.

Aliya played down the wrong line. Umpire’s call on hitting and that’s the fifth wicket down. Arundhati got the wicket.

Fatima Sana came at No. 7.

Shreyanka Patil gave the fourth blow to Pakistan. She got opener Muneeba Ali stumped by wicketkeeper Richa Ghosh. She could score only 17 runs.

Indian team has entered this match with one change.

Diana Baig, the Pakistani medium pacer had suffered a calf injury in the first match and walked out after just bowling one ball. She did not turn up for the practice session as well. So, we can say, she is ruled out of the match.
