Ishan Kishan and Hardik Pandya produced a fine rescue act for India as Shaheen Shah Afridi's 4-fer tormented the Men In Blue before rain forced the two arch-rivals to split points in an Asia Cup 2023 encounter in Pallekele, Sri Lanka. Before the heavens opened up, India were bowled out for 266 in 48.5 overs thanks to Ishan Kishan's 82 off 81 balls and Hardik Pandya's 87 off 90 balls. The duo put on a 138-run partnership to pull India out of danger as Pakistani pacers ran through the top-order. The no result meant that Pakistan ended their Group A proceedings with 3 points, and it also assured them of a place in the Super Four of the tournament. India, who logged a point from their opening fixture, are expected to beat Nepal on Monday and progress to the Super Four.
