India has won the first Super 10 match of cricket's Twenty20 World Cup, beating Pakistan by seven wickets at Mirpur in Bangladesh.
Leg-spinner Amit Mishra grabbed two wickets for 22 runs in four overs as India kept Pakistan down to 130 for seven, after winning the toss in the Group Two match at the Sher-e-Bangla stadium.
Shikhar Dhawan and Rohit Sharma then gave India a flying start with a 54-run opening stand in eight overs as Mahendra Singh Dhoni's men surpassed the modest total with nine deliveries to spare.
India slipped to 65 for three before Virat Kohli (36 not out) and Suresh Raina (35 not out) steered their team to victory with an unfinished partnership of 66 for the fourth wicket.
Defending champions West Indies, Australia and Bangladesh are the other three teams in the group, with the top two advancing to the semi-finals.
