India registered its second-biggest T20I win against Pakistan, in terms of balls remaining, in their Asia Cup 2025 encounter in Dubai on Sunday.
The Men in Blue coasted to a seven-wicket win, with 25 balls to spare in the second innings.
This was just short of India’s performance against Pakistan in 2016, when it claimed a win with 27 balls remaining.

Wrist spinner Kuldeep Yadav chipped in with three wickets, while Axar Patel and Varun Chakaravarthy added two apiece.
India’s chase was powered by a quickfire start by Abhishek Sharma, who scored a 13-ball 31, before Suryakumar Yadav guided the side to its second consecutive win in Group A.
