The nail-biting India vs Pakistan is known to get blood-pressures running high and this T20 WC clash game slated for 9 June is living up to exactly that. 

As the Indian fans sit on the edge of their seats, the blue army has once again struck gold courtesy Rishabh Pant-Hardik Pandya duo. As the wicket-keeper batter made an out of this world catch behind the stumps, Rohit could not resist hugging Pandya.

Watch the video here:


In the 12th over, Pandya cunningly bowled a short-length delivery; Fakhar went for a pull but was hurried by pace. As a result, he got a top edge that lobbed over to Pant, who moved back and took a fine diving catch. He was stepping on the helmet, but he managed to jump over it and grab the catch safely.

What followed was even more beautiful as Rohit came running to Pandya and hugged him for his fantastic bowling. 

At the time of writing, the men in blue has shifted slight pressure on Pakistan after the big wicket of Mohd Rizwan and Shadab Khan. Pakistan is at 96/5 with Imad Wasim and Iftikhar Ahmed.
