The Indian team's batting was very poor in the match. Except Pant and Akshar, no batsman tried to stay on the wicket. This was the reason that after losing the fourth wicket at 89 runs in the 12th over, the entire team was all out for just 119 runs in 19 overs. 8 batsmen of the team could not even cross the double digit mark. Virat Kohli also got out after scoring 4 runs.

With being all out in this match, an unwanted record was also registered in the name of India. This was the first time in the history of T20 World Cup when the Indian team was all out against Pakistan. Before this, India had lost only 9 wickets in the 7 matches played. Similarly, this is India's 7th victory in the T20 World Cup.
After the poor performance of the Indian batsmen, the bowlers performed well and gave the team victory on a score of 119 runs.
