Pakistani bowlers dominate New York T20 show, bowl out India for 119

It is the first time a much-awaited clash between two neighbours is taking place in the USA which is hosting the T20 extravaganza.

Amid the presence of an expected high number of crowds, mostly Asian-origin cricket lovers, New York's newly created stadium buzzed with electrifying Bollywood beats, cheering fans and some adrenaline-rushing cricket.

Indian opener Rohit Sharma (13) set the tone for the first cricket thriller on US soil with a six. Still, Shaheen Shah Afridi and Mohammad Amir soon joined the party to dismiss Virat Kohli (4) and the skipper in quick succession to give the Men in Blue fans a jolt.

Rishabh Pant (42) and Axar Patel (20) stitched the innings after initial dismissals but Pakistani bowlers utilised the conditions well to pick up Indian wickets at regular intervals.

Despite a sloppy effort by Pakistani fielders initially, they rectified and helped their bowlers destroy the mighty batting lineup of the opponent.

Suryakumar Yadav (7), Ravindra Jadeja (0) and Hardik Pandya (7) could not cross the double figure mark.

Indian team cricketers came to USA after their long IPLseason and defeated Ireland in opening match.

Pakistan came back strong in the match after losing their opening game against USA.

Haris Rauf remained the pick of the Pakistani attack as he took four wickets while Shah and Amir scalped three wickets each.
