New Delhi: India kicked off their Hong Kong Sixes campaign with a thrilling two-run win over arch-rivals Pakistan in a rain-affected opener at the Tin Kwong Road Recreation Ground on Friday. The victory also marks India’s sixth straight win over Pakistan in ICC or ICC-affiliated tournaments, continuing their dominance over their South Asian rivals.

While batting first, India posted a total of 86 for four in their six-over quota. Robin Uthappa led the charge with a blistering 28 off just 11 balls followed by Dinesh Karthik contributed a quickfire 17 off six deliveries while Bharat Chipli added 24 off 13 to give India a total that proved just enough in the shortened contest.
