T20 World Cup 2024, India vs Pakistan: In a shocking start to the T20 World Cup 2024 match against Pakistan in New York, India's premier batter Virat Kohli was dismissed early in the second over. Kohli, who managed just four runs off three balls, was out to Naseem Shah. The dismissal came from a delivery that was short and wide outside off, which seemed to stop on Kohli slightly. Reaching out for it, Kohli aimed to slap it over point but ended up hitting it straight to Usman Khan off the toe end.

In the very next over, Indian captain Rohit Sharma was also dismissed. Shaheen Afridi took his wicket after Rohit handed a catch to Haris Rauf at deep square leg. Following these early setbacks, India made a surprising move by promoting Axar Patel to the fourth spot in the batting order.
