Pakistan has pulled off a narrow two-wicket win over India in the Under-19 Asia Cup on Tuesday at Dubai International Cricket Stadium.

Pakistan chased down a challenging 251 with just three balls to spare and registered their third straight win of the tournament.

According to The Nation, although India got off to a solid start after electing to bat with openers Ankush Bains (41) and Akhil Herwadkar (31) putting on 74 runs in 13.3 overs for the opening wicket, however, Pakistan leg-spinner Karamat Ali brought his side back into the match as he removed the top three batsmen to reduce India to 116 for three.

The report mentioned that India scored 250 for seven off their quota of 50 overs, boosted by Ricky Bhui's quick-fire half-century.
