Pakistan maintained an unbeaten record in the group stage of the tournament, triumphing not only against other teams but also showcasing a remarkable performance against India, defeating them by ten wickets for the first time in the history of an ICC event.
However, Australia sneaked a win after Hasan Ali dropped Matthew Wade’s catch in the 19th over. Australia required 20 runs to win off ten deliveries when Hasan dropped the catch; what followed was absolute carnage from the left-handed wicketkeeper-batter.
