Over by over comparison of India – Pakistan T20I battles
Yesterday, India defeated Pakistan by 5 wickets and after the match we saw many comments from experts that why Pakistan have lost 5 matches (including yesterday’s match) against India in in T20Is from 7 matches? Do you know the reason? You will might say yes because of their batting they lost the games and yes that is the right reason and therefore here we decided to compare India and Pakistan’s 7 T20I matches over by over. This will certainly help us get to know in which over and phase of the game India and Pakistan batsmen have made how many runs. It might as well help in figuring out the reason for Pakistan’s batting failure against India. Their performance in the middle overs is certainly weak – overs (6-15) so is it in the last 5 overs when compared to Indian batting in T20Is and that’s why Pakistan have lost 5 games against India till this day in T20Is.

Phase-wise comparison of runs:
| Over-Phase | India (Average runs per wicket) | Pakistan (Average runs per wicket) |
| 1-6 | 25.3 | 21.23 |
| 6.1-15 | 34 | 24.47 |
| 15.1-20 | 17.14 | 10.52 |
Conclusion:
An overview of the last table helps us conclude that if Pakistan wants to win against India consistently then they have to score runs in the middle overs as well as in the last 5 overs of their innings otherwise, they will find it really tough to have the better of India at least in T20Is.
