After India won the recently held Champions Trophy match in Dubai, Pakistan media made bizarre claims.
In a TV debate that went viral on social media, a panellist claimed that India sent 22 Hindu priests to Dubai International Stadium to perform black magic.

He claimed that due to black magic, the Pakistan team failed to perform in the match.
Continuing the claims, he said, “For every player, there were two priests, and that is the reason Pakistani players are getting distracted.”
Levelling allegations against India, he said, “This was the reason why India did not want to come to Pakistan.”
The other panellists not only agreed with his claim but also stated that India had previously performed black magic to win matches.
