The Men's edition of the Asian Games cricket has ended and once again it is the Indian team which has ended up winning the gold medal. The final match was set to take place between India and Pakistan, as the arch rivals of the Asian subcontinent were set to face each other again. 

India went on to bat first in this game, as Abhishek Sharma gave a strong start by scoring 61 runs off 28 balls. While the middle order struggled to score runs against Pakistani spinners, Tilak Varma came to the rescue. He went on to score 51 runs for the team off just 22 balls, as India posted a total of 211/6. 

When Pakistan started the chase, they were troubled easily by Axar Patel. Eventually, the team lost three wickets in the first 15 balls. Despite Hasan Nawaz scoring 96 runs off 51 balls, wickets kept falling at the other end, as India went on to win the game by 19 runs. 

Here's how Twitter has reacted to the same:
