It was also the first time Pakistan won a men's world cup game - ODI or T20 against India, across 13 matches.  1 This win was Pakistan's first-ever by a ten-wicket margin in men's T20Is and the first such defeat for India in this format. Pakistan became only the fourth team to win a men's T20 World Cup game by ten wickets. 152 Target successfully chased by Pakistan against India, the second-highest chase in men's T20Is without losing a wicket.

The previous highest was 145 between Chris Gayle and Devon Smith against South Africa in 2007. It is also the second-highest partnership for any wicket in the men's T20 World Cup, behind the 166-run stand between Kumar Sangakkara and Mahela Jayawardene against West Indies in 2010. 
3 Partnerships of 150-plus runs for Pakistan in the T20I format - all three between Babar and Rizwan for the first wicket.

79* Rizwan's unbeaten score is now the highest for Pakistan on men's T20 World Cup debut, while Babar's 68* is the second-highest on this list. Before this match, only Nasir Jamshed - 56 against New Zealand in 2012 - had a fifty on T20 World Cup debut for Pakistan. 68* Babar's unbeaten knock is the highest score by a Pakistan captain at the men's T20 World Cup, surpassing Shoaib Malik's 57 against Sri Lanka in 2007. It is also the second-highest score on captaincy debut in the men's T20 World Cup, behind the 88 by Chris Gayle against Australia in 2009. Earlier, Virat Kohli became the first Indian skipper to score a fifty at the men's T20 World Cup as he and Babar became the first pair of captains to score fifties in the same game at the men's T20 World Cup. 3 Runs scored by the Indian openers in this game, their lowest aggregate in a men's T20 World Cup game.
