India inflicted a crushing 228-run defeat on arch-rivals Pakistan in the Asia Cup match, their biggest ever win against the neighbours. Riding on scintillating centuries from Virat Kohli (122*) and KL Rahul (111*), India posted a daunting 356. In response, Pakistan's chase never got going as Kuldeep Yadav's 5-wicket haul punctured their innings. The huge margin of victory underscores India's total domination after the batters' gallant exploits. Despite the rain interruptions causing delays, Kohli and Rahul's brilliant hundreds set the platform before Yadav ran through Pakistan's batting. The comprehensive win marks a significant boost for India heading into the World Cup. [photo courtesy: BCCI]
