They failed, though, after losing the important wickets early on. One of the biggest jolts came when Hardik Pandya got rid of well-set Babar Azam for 23, caught behind KL Rahul. They soon lost their other opener Imam-ul-Haq for 10, thanks to a magnificent direct-hit by Axar Patel. Later in the innings, Hardik Pandya got the better of Saud Shakeel in the 35th over, who had established a solid partnership with Mohammad Rizwan. Shakeel scored 62 before being dismissed by Pandya, who also achieved a personal milestone with this wicket. Shakeel was Pandya's 200th dismissal in international cricket, being the 24th Indian player to pick 200 wickets in international cricket (Test+ODIs+T20Is). Pakistan have posted 241 on the board and with the conditions slowing down, India might feel the need of Hardik Pandya during the chase as well.
