‘Pakistan lost the game when they opted to bowl first’: R Ashwin reacts to India’s 61-run win in T20 World Cup clash | Cricket News

3 min readFeb 16, 2026 01:57 PM IST Former India off-spinner Ravichandran Ashwin delivered a blunt assessment of Pakistan’s defeat to India in the T20 World Cup 2026, suggesting the match was effectively decided at the toss. Reacting to India’s commanding 61-run win in Colombo, Ashwin said Pakistan’s decision to bowl first after winning the toss proved to be the turning point. “Where did they win to lose the plot? Pakistan lost the game when they opted to bowl first after winning the toss because we saw the match between Australia and Zimbabwe. Australia struggled to get 170. When we see IPL matches, teams win easily if they need 100 runs off the last 10 overs. But it’s not happening in this World Cup. In Premadasa Stadium, you can’t chase 100 in ten overs. The way Pakistan deals with pressure, India are 100 times better in that aspect. I don’t think Pakistan are there. Honestly, Pakistan have become tactically better under Salman Agha and Mike Hesson. But the way they brought Shaheen Afridi after Agha’s …

Actor Akshaye Khanna is currently the talk of the town because of his work in the Aditya Dhar film Dhurandhar. Despite being a presence on the screen, the actor rarely opens up during interviews.

Vinod, an ardent follower of Osho, left his career in the movies at the peak to follow Osho’s teachings. He also left his wife and two sons back in India as he moved to Oregon. Akshaye was asked about his thoughts when his father decided to move to Rajneeshpuram and the actor told Mid-day, “To not only leave his family, but to take ‘sanyaas’ (renunciation). Sanyaas means giving up your life in totality — family is [only] a part of it. It’s a life-changing decision, which he felt that he needed to take at the time. As a five-year-old, it was impossible [for me] to understand it. I can understand it now.” He continued and admitted that his father …

Avneet Kaur opted for plastic surgery? Actress makes a BIG revelation, ‘I do everything…’

In an interview with Hautterfly, Avneet Kaur clarified that she hasn’t undergone any form of plastic surgery to enhance her features. She said that she feels weird when people comment saying that she looks different and she’s changed.
