Ind vs Pak head-to-head in T20 World Cup history

Since 2007, India and Pakistan have met eight times in T20 World Cup history, with India winning seven of those encounters and Pakistan claiming victory just once. That lone win came via a bowl-out in the 2007 T20 World Cup in Durban, but since then, India has consistently dominated Pakistan.

India sealed their Super Eights spot after handing a humiliating 61-runs win to Pakistan in the Group A Fixture. Both India and Pakistan are scheduled to face Netherlands and Namibia on February 18 in their final group stage match.
