India vs Pakistan in World Cup at the biggest stadium in the World - it doesn't get bigger than this. Rohit Sharma won an important toss and decided to field first but Pakistan who have struggled with their opening partnership so far in the tournament, started on a positive note. All eyes were especially  on Abdullah Shafique who scored a brilliant century against the Lankans and the young man started off against India with a bang as well, playing some glorious shots.

One of those shots was against Jasprit Bumrah in the 7th over of the game when he played a superb lofted drive over mid on, putting Jasprit Bumrah and the huge Indian crowd assembled at the ground in disbelief.

It was a short of good-length delivery on off, and Abdullah Shafqiue, with immense confidence under his belt, just stood tall and played a wonderful lofted drive through the line over mid on for a boundary. 

The shot showed that Pakistan are all geared up to play some positive cricket in a crunch game but Siraj produced a brilliant delivery in the 8th over to get rid of the dangerous Abdullah Shafique on 20 off 24 balls.
