Pakistan has defeated the Indian team in a cricket match after a very long time. Whereas Pakistan’s senior men’s team had to face defeat thrice at the hands of Team India in the recently concluded Asia Cup 2025.

The Asia Cup Rising Stars match is also in the headlines because the Indian team did not shake hands with the Pakistani players before and after this match. Earlier, Team India had also adopted ‘no handshake’ policy in Asia Cup 2025 and Women’s World Cup.

Talking about the match, India A was somehow able to reach the score of 136 due to the innings of 45 runs by Vaibhav Suryavanshi and 35 runs by Naman Dheer. The Indian team could not even play the full 20 overs. On the other hand, thanks to Maaz Sadaqat’s unbeaten inning of 79 runs, Pakistan achieved the target in just 13.2 overs.
