The total proved to be more than enough for Pakistan who folded up for 114 in 18 overs. Both Indian pacers and spinners produced timely wickets to decimate the opposition.
Jasprit Bumrah (2/17) and Axar Patel (2/19) were the stand out bowers for India.

The other Indian batters found it tough to get the boundaries against the Pakistan spinners. Agha employed pace for just two overs in the innings.
India captain Suryakumar Yadav scored 32 off 27 balls.
Off-spinner Saim Ayub was the pick of the Pakistan bowlers, ending with three wickets for 25 runs in four overs.
