India Defeats Pakistan in Cricket World Cup 2011

India won the coin toss and batted first. They exploded at the outset, racking up runs in quick fashion but a succession of wickets (the equivalent of outs in baseball) kept India in check and meant they posted a score of 260 runs which, while respectable, was certainly attainable for a Pakistani side capable of beating anyone on its day.

Similarly, Pakistan made a positive start in its reply, reaching 44 runs without losing any of a side's 10 wickets. But a mini-collapse resulted in Pakistan slumping to 106 for the loss of 4 wickets, which is a tough ask in any one day cricket match, let alone the semi-final of the World Cup. And sure enough, the wickets kept falling at regular intervals with India winning by 29 runs.
