Dubai, Sep 14 (PTI): India registered a convincing seven-wicket victory over Pakistan in a one-sided Asia Cup Group A league match here on Sunday.

India began the day with Hardik Pandya dismissing Saim Ayub on the first legitimate delivery of the game and Jasprit Bumrah dismissing Mohammad Haris in the next over to leave Pakistan tottering at 6 for 2.
