India have defeated Pakistan 3-2 in the SAFF Championship 2026 opener at the National Stadium in Dhaka. The Naushad Moosa-coached side was forced to play with a second-string squad as several of the players couldn’t link up with the team, as the Indian Super League is currently in full swing. The clubs also couldn’t allow the players to feature, as the FIFA international window starts on November 9.
