Pakistan Shaheens Rout India A With 8-Wicket Win as Maaz Sadaqat Hits 79 Not Out

The result puts Pakistan atop Group B, leaving India A needing a win over Oman to keep semifinal hopes alive.

Overview

  • India A were bowled out for 136 in 19 overs after cruising at 91 for three, undone by a late collapse.
  • Shahid Aziz led Pakistan’s attack with 3 for 24, with Saad Masood and Maaz Sadaqat taking two wickets each.
  • Pakistan chased 137 in 13.2 overs with 40 balls to spare, as Sadaqat earned Player of the Match for his all-round display and Mohammad Faiq sealed the result with a six.
  • A third-umpire review ruled a boundary relay attempt not out on Sadaqat, prompting Indian protests, though reports noted the decision aligned with updated laws.
  • Tempers flared as Masood’s send-off of Naman Dhir drew an on-field warning, and the teams continued their no-handshake stance before and after the match.
