India: Vaibhav Suryavanshi tops run charts with 171, a 14-year-old prodigy in red-hot form; Ayush Mhatre adds firepower despite a quiet opener.​

Pakistan: Sameer Minhas leads scorers with 177 runs, while Ahmed Hussain (132) bolsters the top order; their pace attack poses a threat in Dubai conditions.​
