From 113/1, Pakistan lost their last nine wickets for only 33 runs. Axar Patel and Varun Chakravarthy also took 2 wickets each.

Team India chased the target in just 19.4 overs, with Rinku Singh finishing the match with a four. After winning the tournament, Team India refused to receive the Asia Cup trophy from the ACC president, Mohsin Naqvi, due to his political involvement with the Pakistani government.
