Champions Trophy Group: Delhi Police took a swipe at the neighbouring country Pakistan after losing to India by six wickets in the Champions Trophy, saying ‘just heard weird noises’.

“Just heard some weird noises from the neighbouring country,” Delhi Police wrote on X.

Taking a further dig at the all-around poor performance of ‘Men in Green’, the Delhi Police wrote on X, “Hope those were just TVs Breaking.”

Earlier, Virat Kohli brought back his vintage best to hit his 51st ODI century off 111 balls and help India inch closer to a semi-finals spot with a comprehensive six-wicket win over Pakistan in the high-stakes 2025 Champions Trophy Group A clash at the Dubai International Stadium on Sunday.

India had come into the game as favourites to win this game, and justified that billing through an impressive bowling performance to bundle out Pakistan for 241 in 49.4 overs. In the chase, Kohli led the charge by hitting seven boundaries in a sublime knock and sharing a solid 114-run stand with Shreyas Iyer, who made a 67-ball 56, as India reached home with 45 balls to spare.

Chasing 242, Rohit Sharma got going by edging Naseem Shah for a four and followed it up with a trademark pick-up going for six, which helped him go past 9,000 runs as an opener in ODIs and becoming the sixth player to do so. From the other end, Gill began with two boundaries off Shaheen Shah Afridi.

But Shaheen struck in the fifth over by deceiving Rohit with late movement on a 143kmph inswinging yorker, and castling him through the gate. But Gill was undeterred and went on to hit Shaheen for five boundaries, with the front foot straight drive gently punched past the pacer. By the time power-play ended, Gill had collected 35 runs off 25 balls against Shaheen.

There was some tension on whether Kohli would get his hundred or not with 12 runs remaining. But with Axar Patel refusing a double, Kohli quashed all those doubts by dancing down the pitch and slamming Khushdil through extra cover for a four to raise his bat and look upwards, as he led the charge in another successful chase for India in ODIs.
