New Delhi: In just a few hours, the final of the Asia Cup 2025 will be played in Dubai, where India and Pakistan will face each other in an Asia Cup final for the first time. This will be the third meeting between the two teams in the last 15 days. India won both the group stage and Super Four matches easily.
India’s rhythm and Pakistan’s challenge
India defeated Pakistan by seven wickets in the group stage and by six wickets in the Super Four. However, India faced a tough fight in the last match against Sri Lanka. Suryakumar Yadav recently said that India has now surpassed Pakistan and there is no real rivalry left. However, the possibility of an upset in a major match like the final cannot be ruled out.
Head-to-head and record-setting match
So far, India and Pakistan have played decisive matches like finals six times in tournaments involving five or more teams. Pakistan leads 3-2 in these matches. Meanwhile, India’s dominance in T20 Internationals is clearly evident—India has won 11 of the last 14 encounters. In the Asia Cup, India has also won three of the last five matches.
Trolling of Hasan Ali and Haris Rauf
A video of Pakistan’s practice before the final surfaced, showing coach Mike Hesson leading the players in catching drills. Both Hasan Ali and Haris Rauf dropped catches. As soon as the video surfaced, fans began trolling the Pakistan team and Hesson. Comments on social media read, “Where did they get stuck…?”
