Ravichandran Ashwin hilariously trolls Pakistan after embarrassing defeat to India in T20 World Cup 2026

New Delhi: India didn’t just beat Pakistan in Colombo but they outplayed them in every department.

The ball held up, the spinners got purchase, and the scoreboard kept tightening the screws. Pakistan were…
