Pakistan beat India by five wickets in their first Super Four game at the Asia Cup in Dubai of the United Arab Emirates on Sunday night.

Chasing 182 to win, Pakistan reached the target with a ball to spare.

Rizwan was out after his second successive half-century in the 17th over but Khushdil Shah, with his unbeaten 14, and Asif Ali, who made 16 off eight balls, made sure Pakistan got over the line against Arshdeep Singh. 

Earlier, Virat Kohli's 60 guided India to 181-7 after being put in to bat first in the tournament, which acts as a tune-up to the T20 World Cup in October-November.
