India Vs Pakistan LIVE Score India Vs Pakistan, Live Cricket Score and Updates, ICC ODI World Cup 2023 Match 12: India secured their eighth consecutive victory in style, and this particular win was undeniably their most effortless yet. They thrashed Pakistan, further enhancing their enviable World Cup record in ODIs. The pursuit of 192 runs was never going to rattle the formidable Indian batting lineup, and their skipper, Rohit Sharma, made it even smoother with an outstanding performance. Rohit's timing was impeccable, and he elegantly dismantled the Pakistani pacers with his masterful strokeplay. One memorable moment was his pull shot against Haris Rauf, which sailed over deep backward square leg.
Although Rohit didn't achieve back-to-back World Cup centuries against Pakistan, his innings provided the platform for players like Shreyas Iyer to settle in and for India's No. 4 to confidently amass an unbeaten 53 runs. Pakistan, on the other hand, never had a competitive total to defend. They must be pondering how they let themselves collapse from a strong position at 155/2 in the 30th over to a meager 191 all out. This was the pivotal turning point of the game, and India seized the opportunity after claiming Babar's wicket, ultimately making the contest their own. With this triumph, India also ascended to the top of the table. In retrospect, considering how the pitch behaved around the 25th over of the chase, a target of 280 runs would have been formidable. However, Pakistan fell well short of that mark.

IND vs PAK Live: Indian captain Rohit Sharma
"The bowlers were the ones today as well who set the game up for us. I don't think it was a 190 pitch. At one stage we were looking at 280. The way they showed grit says a lot. That is something we pride ourselves in. Whoever gets the ball does the job. We've got 6 individuals who can do the job with the ball. My job as a captain is important there as well. It's to read the conditions and figure out who's the right guy to do the job. It's only because the guys - before entering the WC - they got a lot of runs. We were very clear what we wanted to do. Didn't want to be in two minds about who's going to bat where. All in all, it's looking good. Want to keep my fingers crossed. Don't want to get too excited. Don't want to get too low as well. Want to stay balanced. Keep calm and keep moving forward. Every opposition we come up against are all quality. You have to play well on that particular day, and that's what we're looking at."
IND vs PAK Live: Pakistan Captain Babar Azam
"We started well. Good partnership between me and Imam. We wanted to play normal cricket (me and Rizwan). Suddenly we had a collapse and didn't finish well. The way we started, wanted to target 280-290. With the new ball we are not upto the mark. The way Rohit is playing - he played an outstanding innings."
IND vs PAK Live: Jasprit Bumrah After Winning Player of the Match
"It felt good. Usually you try to analyse the wicket as soon as possible. We realised the wicket is on the slower side so we wanted to bowl hard lengths. We were trying to make it as difficult as possible. (On how he reads pitches quickly and understands what lengths work) Just being aware I guess. I used to ask a lot of questions when I was young and that helps me now. Now I'm experienced. In my younger days they (seniors) were used to being troubled by me sometimes (with questions), but it helps to read the wicket and try different options. (On the slower ball to get rid of Rizwan) We were bowling in the middle overs and I saw Jaddu's ball was turning, not too much but a little bit. I count my slower ball as a spinner's slower ball, one of those days where it came off. (On the ball that got Shadab) Little phase where there was reverse swing, one of the occasions when the white ball was reverse swinging."
