Pakistan were batting first and scored 127/9 in their 20 overs. In reply, the Indian batters’ intent from the first ball was clear, and they were not going to spare the Pakistani bowlers. Eventually, India won the match in the 16 overs by seven wickets. Kuldeep Yadav was the Man of the Match for his three wickets.

He was again questioned about the sportsman’s spirit in the press conference. Eventually, he calmly answered that some things are more than a sportsman’s spirit.
