India, chasing a modest target set by Pakistan, completed the victory clinically with 7 wickets in hand and several overs to spare. However, when the match ended, the traditional gesture of sportsmanship, players from both sides lining up to shake hands, was noticeably absent from the Indian team. Instead, the Indian players quietly walked off the field, acknowledging the crowd but avoiding direct interaction with the Pakistani side.
