India is unbeaten against Pakistan in the ICC World T20, winning three of its four matches against the neighbouring country outright, and taking the other game via a bowl-out.

The bowl-out, cricket's version of penalty kicks, was the preferred method of ending tied T20 matches before the super over was introduced.

There were plenty of fireworks when Pakistan and India faced off in 'normal' time in the 2007 World T20 group match but the bowl-out meant the game ended on much lighter, unfamiliar note.
