Sahibzada Farhan anchored the innings with a fluent 58 off 45 balls, while cameos from Mohammad Nawaz and skipper Babar Azam ensured a fighting total.

Abhishek Sharma stole the show with his fearless strokeplay, smashing 6 fours and 5 sixes, and putting Pakistan\u2019s bowlers under immense pressure. He found an able ally in Shubman Gill, who contributed a quickfire 47 off 28 balls. Later, Tilak Varma (30\\* off 19) steered India home calmly as the Men in Blue crossed the finish line at 174\/4 in 18.5 overs.<\/p>\n<p>For Pakistan, Abrar Ahmed managed to dismiss Abhishek, while Haris Rauf and Shaheen Afridi picked a wicket each, but their efforts went in vain as India\u2019s top order proved too strong.<\/p>\n<p>With this win, India strengthened their position in the Super Fours and sent out a strong message ahead of the final stages of the tournament.
