Against Pakistan on a turning surface in Colombo, Ishan Kishan produced one of the finest innings of his T20 career. His 77 off 41 balls set the tone for India’s total and shifted the momentum early. Pakistan’s strategy was clear. They relied heavily on spin in the powerplay, trying to exploit India’s left-handers. Ishan, however, took the attack to the leg-spinners. He slog-swept, reverse-swept and pierced the offside with authority. By the time he departed in the ninth over, he had scored 77 of India’s 88 runs.It was a statement knock. His strike rate of 193 showed the dominance. More importantly, it showcased his growth against spin, an area that once raised concerns.After his knock, India posted 175 runs on the board at the loss of 7 wickets. However, Pakistan collapsed to 114/10 in the chase, thus handing an easy 61-run victory to India.
