Erstwhile Pakistan cricketers lashed out at the team for their performance calling it a "black day".
Former captain Younis Khan said Pakistan had made some tactical blunders when it mattered the most.
"I would have liked to see Fakhar Zaman take the strike in the super over against the left-arm seamer. But one can only learn from such a bad day and I hope Babar Azam and the other players now take every game as a do or die game," Younis said.
Pace legend Wasim Akram termed the team's performance as pathetic.
"It didn't seem like Pakistan was playing against a team that has limited exposure against top teams."
Rohit Sharma-led India will take on Pakistan on Sunday and Indian cricketer Hardik Pandya, when asked about it, said he is eager to repeat his past success against the cross-border opponents.
"Standing in big games is very exciting for me. I find it extra special and Pakistan has been one team where I have been very fortunate, I have been able to do well in a lot of games," Pandya told Star Sports.
The 'Men in Blue' played Ireland where they registered an eight-wicket victory in their opening game earlier this week.
