The rivalry between India and Pakistan in cricket goes beyond format boundaries, but it takes on a whole new dimension in the fast-paced arena of the Twenty20 arena Cup. Here's a look back at the thrilling matches that have occurred in the last five tournament editions:
With an incredible 82* off 53 balls, Virat Kohli turned back time and led India to win in a thrilling chase against Pakistan by just 4 wickets. Even though Shan Masood made a heroic fifty-two, Pakistan's 159/8 was not enough as Hardik Pandya took three wickets to keep them in check.
Pakistan decisively put a stop to India's T20 World Cup winning streak against them. With 10 wickets and 13 balls remaining, Babar Azam (68) and Mohammad Rizwan (79) combined for a commanding opening combination that helped India's score of 151/7 be surpassed. India's chances were further undermined by Shaheen Afridi's three wickets.
With combined scores of 4/32, Yuvraj Singh and Ravichandran Ashwin spearheaded India's spin assault, which limited Pakistan to a pitiful 118/5. India easily defeated Pakistan by 6 wickets, chasing a small target, and Virat Kohli led the way with a cool 55.
Virat Kohli put on yet another outstanding display, this time with an undefeated 78, leading India to a comfortable 17-over victory. Pakistan was limited to 128 by India's spin combo of Yuvraj Singh and Ashwin, who combined for four wickets. Pakistan's batting collapsed against them.
