Nader Shah helps the Mughals

[ZetaMaximus]

What if instead of Nader Shah wrecking havoc on the Mughals, he instead assists them with the ongoing Maratha threat?

Why would he feel so inclined?

I wonder what the Mughals would offer to have Nader support him.

If Nader does support the Mughals the Marathas would have a hard time staying in Northern India. But as soon as Nader dies the Marathas will return. It is merely delaying a problem for the Mughals.

Yeah so I was thinking a scenario like when the Afghans came later to assist the Mughals at the Third Battle of Panipat.
