India beat Pakistan by 7 wickets in Dubai after restricting them to 127/9. Shaheen Afridi’s late 33* off 16 lifted Pakistan, but India’s spinners—Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, and Varun Chakravarthy—ran the show. Shubman Gill fell early to Saim Ayub’s surprise carrom ball, yet India cruised. Reports said players skipped handshakes post-match, adding heat to the rivalry.
