Riding on bowlers' exceptional performance, India have powered themselves to a commanding position against arch-rivals Pakistan in the ongoing Asia Cup clash in Colombo. After the seamers got rid of Imam-ul-Haq, Babar Azam and Mohammad Rizwan, ace spinner Kuldeep Yadav jolted Pakistan with a massive blow, cleaning up Fakhar Zaman with an absolute peach. 

The incident happened in the 20th over when Indian captain Rohit Sharma introduced Kuldeep Yadav from one end to break the budding partnership between Zaman and Agha Salman. After challenging the batters with his guile, the wily craftsman castled the swashbuckling southpaw with a dream delivery. 

It was a genuine leg break, which turned sharply to beat Zaman and shatter his middle stump. Seeing a flighted delivery, Zaman's eyes lit up, as he went for a wild slog, with the ball going all the way to castle him. 

After Zaman's dismissal, Pakistan suffered another setback, with ace batter Agha Salman being hit on his nose while attempting for a sweep shot. The Men in Green are in all sorts of trouble now, reeling at 83 for four in 21 overs, with Iftikhar and Salman batting on 3* and 15*, respectively.
