Though India scored 308, Younis Khan's 123 not out gave Pakistan a ray of hope to enter the final and helped them to stay in the competition. Skipper Misbah-ul-Haq scored 70 and put a 144-run unbeaten partnership for the 3rd wicket.
For India, Dhoni top scored with 76 while Rohit scored an useful 58.
India have to beat Sri Lanka in their next match or the match should end in a tie or wash out. Else, Pakistan would enter the final. So, it will be a do or die for India on July 3rd.
