India in Super Eight by favoring Pakistan

Virat Kohli-Rohit Sharma departed for 10 runs. At the unpredictable Nassau International Cricket Stadium, however, the USA could not provide any surprises other than taking the wickets of these two quickly. In the end, India secured Super Eight from 'A' group by winning by a big margin of 7 wickets.
