I was watching ptv earlier today, and one of the brigadiers who faught in the tank battle of chawinda was invited to share his experiences. He said that India had come in with about 250 tanks, and there were tanks "as far as eye could see." He only had 14 tanks with him at that time. Since he couldn't take them head-on, he decided to fight them using the guerilla warfare tactics of hit and run. He was able to destroy 16 Indian tanks that day, and Indian military retreated as they thought they were fighting against hundreds of tanks. This gave Pak army enough time to transport more tanks on that front.
