India and Pakistan will resume their fabled rivalry when the teams meet in their Group A match of ICC T20 World Cup 2024 at the Nassau County International Cricket Stadium in New York on Sunday.

The teams will be meeting in the T20 World Cup for the eighth time across nine editions, with India conceding defeat only once. The teams first met in the group stage of the 2007 T20 World Cup where the Men in Blue emerged victorious in a nail-biting bowl out after the match ended in a tie. India proceeded to pip Pakistan by five runs and clinch the maiden title.

Here is a look at the complete head-to-head record of India vs Pakistan

What happened when India met Pakistan the last time in a T20I and T20 World Cup match?

India and Pakistan last squared off in a T20I at the 2022 T20 World Cup in Australia, remembered famously for an epochal Virat Kohli innings at a packed Melbourne Cricket Ground (MCG) Stadium.

Chasing a 160-run target, India were reduced to 31 for four by Pakistan seamers Naseem Shah and Haris Rauf before Kohli and Hardik Pandya forged a 113-run partnership. The chase was however progressively slipping off India’s grasp as the side required 48 from the last three overs. The equation boiled down to 28 off two deliveries before Kohli launched an otherwise-wordly straight pull off Rauf for a six and backed it up with a flick over backward square for another maximum. Indian then scraped through off the final delivery as Kohli finished unbeaten on 82 off 53 deliveries.
