Following India's six-wicket victory over Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025 Super Four match in Dubai, a fresh controversy erupted off the field. Haris Rauf's wife posted an Instagram story with a photo of her husband giving a "6-0" hand sign. Posting the picture, she captioned it, "Lost the match but won the battle." The post soon became viral as the fans interpreted it as a jibe at Indian fans, even though Pakistan lost the game. Here's the story: What the '6-0' Gesture Represents The "6-0" gesture is associated with a claim frequently made in Pakistan regarding their air force shooting down of six Indian fighter jets Rafael during India's Operation Sindoor, an aftermath of Pahalgam attack. Although the claims have been proved to be false and is generally believed to be a myth, it is often mentioned by Pakistani players and fans, particularly during cricket matches against India, especially when the neighbours end up on losing side. Earlier in the match, Haris Rauf had also made a hand signal displaying a plane "drowning," that was interpreted as a symbol of Indian fighter planes. He even chanted '6-0' amidst Pakistan's practice camp prior to the Super Four match, fueling the rivalry.

The initial Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill partnership put India on course for the game. Abhishek started with a six to the first ball from Shaheen Afridi, setting Pakistan on the back foot. Tensions ran high as the openers had verbal exchanges with Pakistani bowlers, specifically Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf. Even though Pakistan picked a couple of wickets post-drinks break, the outcome was never in question. Abhishek Sharma's 74-run knock was the highlight, including towering sixes, especially over mid-wicket off Abrar Ahmed. Shubman Gill and the other Indian batters, Tilak Varma in particular, ensured an easy run chase, and India cruised to a straightforward six-wicket victory and a good start to their Super Fours campaign. They just need to win one more match to secure a spot in the finals, while Pakistan will require two consecutive victories to meet India in the finals. Off-Field Controversy Overshadows Cricket While India's on-field performance was extraordinary, Haris Rauf's wife's post-match Instagram story attracted social media attention. Fans discussed the intention behind the gesture and the story, and the incident became part of the intense India-Pakistan cricket rivalry's continuing chapter.
