The wait is over. The Asia Cup 2025 Final is here — and it’s the dream clash everyone wanted. India vs Pakistan will light up the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Sunday, September 28, with the trophy and bragging rights on the line.
India come in unbeaten, having dominated the Super Four stage with clinical performances. Abhishek Sharma has been the star with the bat, while Jasprit Bumrah and Kuldeep Yadav have kept opponents guessing with the ball. Yet, questions remain about India’s middle order consistency heading into the crunch game.
Pakistan, on the other hand, have taken the harder route to the final. After setbacks against India, Salman Ali Agha’s men roared back with Shaheen Afridi and Haris Rauf rediscovering their fiery rhythm. Fakhar Zaman’s form at the top will be key if the Men in Green are to break India’s dominance.
It’s not just another game — it’s India vs Pakistan in a final. Expect a sell-out crowd, millions watching worldwide, and a match loaded with pressure, pride, and passion.
