Asia Cup 2023: Highest run getters for India against Pakistan in Sri Lanka

1. Gautam Gambhir

Former Indian opener Gautam Gambhir tops the list in most run-getter by an Indian batter against Pakistan in Sri Lanka. Gautam played in only one inning against one of his favourite opponents, Pakistan. The Asia Cup match was played at Dambulla in the year 2010. India was desperate to get a win here over Pakistan.

Pakistan set up a 268-run target for their neighbour. Gambhir and his teammate Virender Sehwag were up for the task. But Sehwag got cramps making Gambhir cautious about his approach. He was taking time, no risk involved. Gambhir stayed rock solid from one end when batters were not comfortable facing from the other end.

Gambhir with his strong mindset was determined to stay till the end. He fought hard and ran quite well in between the wickets. Once Mohammad Amir dropped him off Shoaib Malik's bowling. By then it was too late for him and Pakistan, as they already stitched a strong.
