Dubai International Cricket Stadium:

New Delhi, Sep 15 (ANS) Pakistan were no match against a far-superior India in the Group A match of the T20 Asia Cup in Dubai on Sunday.

While the world champions’ dominance reflected in the seven-wicket win, Pakistan’s disappointment showed up in the words of their former wicketkeeper Kamran Akmal – inviting comparison with the downfall of country’s hockey.
