Asia Cup 2025: The match between India and Pakistan is not just a cricket match, but it becomes a thrill that makes millions of hearts beat faster. Asia Cup 2025 has now reached its crucial juncture and this great match to be held on Sunday, September 14 in Dubai is in everyone’s eyes. After last year’s T20 World Cup, both the teams will face each other for the first time.
Pakistan’s challenge and Team India’s confidence
Pakistan’s team is not looking that strong this time. Cricket experts believe that this squad is much weaker than in the past years and the lack of match-winning players is clearly visible. On the other hand, the Indian team has started the tournament in a great way and is full of confidence about its combination.
The team made many experiments in the first match played against UAE. Sanju Samson was sent to the middle order, while Kuldeep Yadav was included by keeping Arshdeep Singh out. This change proved beneficial for the team.
New strategy in batting
Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma have cemented their place as openers. A lot of flexibility is now being seen in the middle order. Players like Suryakumar Yadav, Sanju Samson, Tilak Verma and Shivam Dubey can change the batting order according to the situation. If India suffers an early setback, Samson can be sent up, while Suryakumar Yadav can play an important role in pacing the innings after the powerplay.
Bowling strength
The trio of Jasprit Bumrah, Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakraborty is the biggest strength in the Indian bowling attack. This combination of fast bowling and mystery spin can pose a big challenge for the opponents. However, one change is possible Arshdeep Singh can be included as an additional fast bowler, for which Shivam Dubey may have to sit out.
Team India’s Probable Playing XI
Shubman Gill, Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar Yadav (Captain), Sanju Samson (Wicketkeeper), Tilak Verma, Shivam Dubey/Arshdeep Singh, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakraborty.
This India vs Pakistan match is not just between two teams, but a clash of passion and pride. Even though Pakistan looks weak this time, this battle on the field is always tough. Team India looks balanced and full of confidence and this match is expected to give memorable moments to cricket lovers.
