According to the hybrid model agreed upon, the final was to be held at Lahore’s Gaddafi Stadium if India failed to reach the concluding match. However, with Rohit XI’s progression, the final was moved to Dubai, leading to open criticism from Indian figures. Harbhajan Singh, among others, took to social media to sarcastically comment on Pakistan’s double loss, highlighting both their team’s elimination and the loss of hosting rights. This online commentary further intensified the existing tensions between the cricketing nations, especially after Pakistan’s disappointing performance in the initial tournament matches.
