Details

India won the toss and elected to bat first. Openers Sachin Tendulkar and Virender Sehwag gave India a good start before Tendulkar was run-out for 16 runs. However, India continued to score at a good pace with VVS Laxman joining Sehwag for a partnership of 92 runs. Once Laxman and Sehwag were dismissed by Shahid Afridi for 43 runs and 53 runs respectively, captain Sourav Ganguly played a cautious innings of 48 runs after Rahul Dravid was dismissed cheaply. Yuvraj Singh was the top-scorer for the Indian team with 78 runs off 62 deliveries, including 10 fours and 2 sixes. India finished their innings at 292/6.

Pakistan, in reply, lost Younis Khan for 0 with Zaheer Khan taking his wicket. After his dismissal, Salman Butt and Shoaib Malik stitched a partnership of 113 runs before Butt retired hurt on 68* when Pakistan were 155/2. Captain Inzamam-ul-Haq was joined by Malik before Sehwag dismissed him for 61 runs. Butt, who had retired to the pavilion, returned to play and scored a match-winning century along with Inzamam, who contributed 75 runs in their 98-run partnership to take the match away from India. Pakistan reached their target of 293 runs for the loss of 4 wickets with an over to spare, with Butt remaining unbeaten on 108 runs off 130 deliveries.
