Asia Cup 2023 Highlights | India vs Pakistan | IND vs PAK, Super 4 match:
- 23:24 (IST)India vs Pakistan: Rohit on India's batting -"Fantastic performance, right from yesterday. When we started, we knew the wicket was good and we had to adjust with the rain, the two experienced (Virat Kohli and KL Rahul) guys we knew they'd take time to get their eye in and then we can get going. Looking at how we batted, there were lots of positives with the openers and then Virat and KL. Virat's innings was brilliantly paced. And then KL, to get back from injury and then to know 5 minutes before the toss he's playing, to play that way shows the mindset of the player."
- 23:17 (IST)IND vs PAK: "Great effort from the groundsmen""We just wanted to get out on the park, to get some game time. Lot of guys haven't had that. That could only happen thanks to a great effort from the groundsmen. I know how tough it is to cover and remove covers from the whole ground. On behalf of the entire team, we would like to thank them," said India skipper Rohit Sharma after the win.
- 23:12 (IST)IND vs PAK: A massive win for India!India have won the game by a really big margin.

- 22:00 (IST)IND vs PAK: WICKET!This was always coming! Fakhar Zaman was getting restless as the required run rate was going high for Pakistan.

- 21:51 (IST)IND vs PAK: Tight chance!Kuldeep Yadav could have had a wicket only on the second ball of his first over.

- 21:23 (IST)IND vs PAK Live: WICKET!Shardul Thakur has bowled a peach to get better of Mohammad Rizwan.
