- It served as the tournament’s first match of the T20 World Cup
Using Instagram, Mirza—who is wed to former Pakistani cricket captain Shoaib Malik—shared a video of her and her family watching the match between the two nations while they were sat in a room.
“Tag your match crew!!! Different stages of the match today,” she wrote in her caption accompanied by multiple crying emojis.

Sania was overheard remarking, “If anybody can do it, it’s these two,” in reference to India’s outstanding batting partnership between Virat Kohli and Hardik Pandya, which helped the Blue Shirts to victory.
Sania and her family could be seen enjoying India’s triumph over Pakistan toward the end of the video.
India defeated Pakistan at the Melbourne Cricket Ground in Melbourne, Australia, by a margin of four wickets.
