India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2025 Final

As per IANS, India’s success was scripted first by their spinners, with Kuldeep Yadav spearheading a stunning turnaround on a two-paced pitch. From 113/1 in the 13th over, Pakistan crumbled to 146 all out in 19.1 overs, losing their last nine wickets for just 33 runs. 

Set 147 to win, India slipped to 20/3 after Abhishek Sharma miscued Faheem Ashraf, skipper Suryakumar Yadav fell to Shaheen Shah Afridi, and Shubman Gill mistimed another stroke off Ashraf. But Tilak Varma stood tall. He rebuilt with Sanju Samson (24) in a stand of 57, then added 60 with Shivam Dube (33), who was promoted in Hardik Pandya’s absence. 

Left-handed batter Varma rose to with an unbeaten 69 and guided India to a five-wicket victory over arch-rivals Pakistan to win the Asia Cup for the ninth time.
