30 overs, when they were on 175 for 2, adding 181 runs off the final 20 – the last 10 overs alone yielded 105 runs.
Pakistan captain Azam started the day with the news that he would not be able to turn to the services of fast bowler Rauf, who picked up an injury on Sunday, and the Indian batsmen capitalized on the sixth option bowler Iftikhar Ahmed, whose 5.4 overs went for 52 runs.
It didn’t help that Shah, who beat both batsmen in his first over of the day in a rare phase where Pakistan’s bowlers troubled either Kohli or Rahul, walked off the field two balls into his final over.
Chief scores:
India 356/2 in 50 overs (Virat Kohli 122 n.o., KL Rahul 111 n.o.)
Pakistan 128 in 32 overs (Fakhar Zaman 27, Kuldeep Yadav 5/25)
