Especially, when there is match with our enemy country which is Pakistan, when match happens, then the whole country watches it. As the Indian Army gave befitting reply to Pakistan on the ground, in the field, Indian cricketers did that. I want to congratulate them."
BJP National Spokesperson R.P. Singh said, "Pakistan is badly embarrassed, and once again, Pakistan is standing at the crossroads. India’s Army continuously gives them a befitting reply, and our players also give them a befitting reply."

Defending champions India brushed aside Pakistan by 61 runs in their high-stakes Group A clash at the R. Premadasa Stadium in Colombo on Sunday, a result that also confirmed their place in the Super Eights. Ishan Kishan’s blistering 77 had set the tone earlier in the evening, and India’s bowlers ensured the target of 176 was always out of reach to dismiss Pakistan for 114 in 18 overs.
