Jasprit Bumrah had delivered 5,445 balls in T20 cricket for Mumbai and his country, with only 180 sent sailing over the rope for six. That's a maximum every five overs.

This was supposed to be the site of India's coronation as 50-over world champions in November 2023. But on an awkward surface, later rated average by the International Cricket Council, their batters struggled and Australia beat them comfortably. Just 28 months later India return to play another World Cup final, in a different format, and seeking a very different outcome.

King resumes and takes her time getting her field set. Rana hits the first ball of the over back towards her, but it lands safely wide of King. An almost stumping next ball – King is really making things happen here and Rana has to get her bat out into a strong forward defensive position to avoid losing her wicket. King is bowling beautifully here, there is almost a chance on every ball.

When India and Pakistan meet in the T20 World Cup on Sunday, the match will not just be significant for its on-field cricket action but also the political climate that has shrouded the encounter and the tournament itself. The South Asian nations share a decades-old history of wars and hostile relations. The most recent encounter came in May 2025, when the nuclear-armed neighbours were engaged in a four-day cross-border conflict.

The England and Wales Cricket Board and all eight of The Hundred team franchises reaffirm their commitment to ensuring The Hundred continues to be a competition that is inclusive, welcoming and open to all.

After Pakistan announced their boycott of the forthcoming T20I World Cup match against India, the International Cricket Council (ICC) was quick to lament the position the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) had put fans in. [Pakistan's] decision is not in the interest of the global game or the welfare of fans worldwide, the ICC said in a release, before going on to make special mention of millions in Pakistan, who will now have no India fixture to anticipate.

The reversal late on Monday brought relief to millions of fans on both sides of the countries' shared border as well as tournament organisers and coaches. The Indian camp said it would be delighted to play against a quality side. It's great that the game is back on. We kind of never changed the preparation, India's assistant coach Ryan ten Doeschate said on Tuesday.

Cricket's global governing body hopes to persuade Pakistan to reverse decision to boycott India T20 World Cup fixtures. The International Cricket Council is in talks with the Pakistan Cricket Board to resolve the boycott of its T20 World Cup 2026 fixture against India on February 15. Any clash between archrivals India and Pakistan is one of the most lucrative in cricket, worth millions of dollars in broadcast, sponsoring and advertising revenue.
