"We've already done preparation": Kishan on facing Pakistan spinner Usman Tariq ahead of marquee T20WC clash
Feb 12, 2026
Kishan's explosive 24-ball 61 with six fours and five sixes gave Team India a headstart, which helped them even during a middle-over slump as they finished with 209/9 courtesy fine knocks from him and Hardik Pandya, who also struck a fiery 28-ball 52. Later, Namibia did take the game on against Indian bowlers in the powerplay by attacking Indian pacers, but spinners Varun Chakravarthy and Axar Patel threw their momentum off the rails, and the visitors were skittled out for merely 116.
