Pakistan, the &#8220;hosts&#8221; of the ICC Champions Trophy, were forced to play their &#8220;home&#8221; game against India in Dubai. The stadium was packed with Indian fans, and the Men in Green were left feeling like guests at their own party.<\/p>\n<p class=\"first:mt-1.5\">Rohit Sharma and his men didn\u2019t just beat Pakistan\u2014they thrashed them. Pakistan\u2019s batting crumbled, their bowling lacked bite, and their fielding\u2026 well, let\u2019s not even go there.<\/p>\n\n<div data-mode=\"normal\" data-provider=\"html5\" id=\"arve-html5-\" style=\"max-width:576px;\" class=\"arve\">\n\t<div class=\"arve-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"arve-embed\">\n\t\t\t<video class=\"arve-video fitvidsignore\" controls controlslist=\"\" data-arve=\"arve-html5-\" onloadstart=\"this.volume=1\" preload=\"metadata\"><source type=\"video\/mp4\" src=\"https:\/\/propakistani.pk\/lens\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/02\/pak-vs-ind-2.mp4#t=0.1\"><\/video>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\n\t<\/div>\n\t\n\t\n\t\n\t\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"first:mt-1.5\">India chased down the target with ease, leaving Pakistan\u2019s chances of making it to the semi-finals hanging by a thread.
