Hardik Pandya did not leave it too late. He swung the fourth ball over long-on to wrap up a famous win, one that could eliminate bitter memories of the last time they played Pakistan here.
Former Pakistan captain Waqar Younis created controversy after saying that he was happy to see Pakistan opener Mohammad Rizwan observe "Namaz between Hindus" during their T20 World Cup match against India. The comment drew criticism on social media. Former India opener Wasim Jaffer called Younis comments vile and disgusting. Commentator Harsha Bhogle said he was disappointed to hear someone of Younis stature to make such divisive comments. Younis apologised for the comment saying that he made it in the heat of the moment and did not intend to hurt sentiments.
