Rohit Sharma's hundred and Kuldeep Yadav's spin worked wonders as India inflicted a humiliating 89-run defeat on their arch-rivals Pakistan in a much-hyped World Cup match - which turned out to be a lop-sided affair.
Chasing a total of 337-runs, Pakistan were already down and out when rain stopped play after 35 overs. They had managed 166 runs for the loss of six wickets and the DLS help they were awaiting went against them.
The match was reduced to 40 overs with a revised target of 302. Pakistan required 136 runs from just five overs. Imad Wasim (46) and Shadab Khan (20) remained unbeaten at 212 for six.
As soon as India registered the victory, congratulatory messages started to pour in on Twitter. While many fans praised India for their win, some took shots at Pakistan for another failure to secure a win against India in World Cup matches.
One Pakistani supporter - who was present at the stadium - cried out blaming the player's fitness for their loss.
Talking to a channel, the emotional fan said, "Mujhe pata chala hai kal raat ye log burger khate rahe hai, kal raat ye kog pizza khate rahe hai. Inahu cricket chudvao aur dangal ladvao. Inse koi dangal lade. Matlab koi fitness koi kuch nahi yaha pe. Matlab hum inse itni umeede banake baite hai aur inhe burger khana hai". (I came to that yesterday these players were eating burgers and pizzas. They should leave cricket and start wrestling as they are not bothered about their fitness.)
India now as a 7-0 record against Pakistan in the 50-over World Cup. India will take on Afghanistan on 22 June while Pakistan face South Africa on 23 June.
