Another exemplary win! India beats Pakistan by 9 wickets

Scoring centuries, Rohit Sharma and Shikhar Dhawan’s partnership strolled India to victory against Pakistan. India had a swift win against a hapless Pakistan as Rohit and Shikhar put up an opening stand of 210 within 34 overs to flatten the opponents who had slated a target of 238 to chase.

This is the highest margin of victory for India in terms of wickets in hand. In their previous encounter against Pakistan in this tournament, India's margin of victory was the highest in terms of a number of overs in hand. Pakistan was never really in it. It looked like they might set up a biggish total for India to chase but an extraordinary spell of death over bowling from India restricted. And then, it was the Dhawan-Rohit show.

They were helped by some lax fielding and dropped catches from Pakistan early on. Rohit, in the process, completed 7000 ODI runs, becoming just the ninth Indian player to do so. Shikhar Dhawan, on the other hand, scored his 15th ODI ton before being run out.

Hitting sixes and fours, there was no stopping for Shikhar Dhawan as he just aimed at scoring a century with an exemplary lead to India. Making him the man of the match, Shikhar Dhawan undoubtedly was the winner and man for the day.
