Hardik Pandya and Ishan Kishan combined in a 138-run fifth wicket stand off 141 balls to help India overcome a top-order wobble and reach 266 against Pakistan in their Asia Cup match on Saturday.

Kishan (82 off 81 balls) and Pandya (87 off 90 balls) kept Pakistan bowlers at bay to give the Men in Blue a fine chance to make a winning start to the tournament.
