Kolkata : In World T20 India defeated Pakistan by six wickets in a Super 10 Group 2 match to record their first win in the ICC World Twenty20 here today.
Virat Kohli scored an unbeaten 55 to guide India home in their chase of 119.
Brief Scores:
New Zealand: 118/5 in 18 overs (Shoaib Malik 26, Ahmed Shehzad 25, A Nehra 1/20).
India: 119 for 4 in 15.5 overs.(Virat Kohli 55, Yuvraj Singh 24; M Aamir 1/11).
Earlier, Indian bowlers produced a decent effort but Pakistan still managed a competitive 118 for five on a rank turner after being put into bat.
While 118 might not be a great score otherwise, considering the amount of turn on offer, the visitors have something to defend on a match that was reduced to 18-overs-a -side due to rain delay.
