Defending champions India's win over Pakistan also confirmed their place in the Super Eights. Ishan Kishan\u2019s blistering 77 had set the tone earlier in the evening, and India\u2019s bowlers ensured the target of 176 was always out of reach to dismiss Pakistan for 114 in 18 overs.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Speaking to IANS, Ganguly opined that the current Pakistan team isn\u2019t comparable to the legendary side that featured players like Javed Miandad and Wasim Akram.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"A big match doesn\u2019t really exist anymore; those kinds of matches used to happen in the past. We make the mistake of thinking of Pakistan as the team of Javed Miandad, Wasim Akram, and Shahid Tanvir, but that Pakistan no longer exists,\" Ganguly told IANS. <\/p>\r\n\r\n
With Sunday's win, India have strenghten their head-to-head record over Pakistan in the T20 World Cups to 8-1; Pakistan managed to win only once (in 2021). <\/p>\r\n\r\n
\"So, in my view, it\u2019s not a big match. For me, the real big matches are India vs Australia, India vs South Africa, and India vs England. There is a huge difference between the teams, so the result is somewhat expected. The gap in quality is more noticeable than the result itself,\" Ganguly added.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
