India (150/5) defeat Pakistan (146) by 5 wickets in thrilling encounter to clinch Asia Cup 2025 title

[Nasty Naz]

45-0 in the PP. Not great but still better than most PP's we've seen from Pakistan.

They have the wickets in hand now to attack their spinners in the middle over. They need to find a way to capitalize on that.

 

[cricketfan24]

If we get 100 by 10th over without a wicket we are good

 

[Justcrazy]

45 / 0 in six overs , decent start . Key will be middle overs , that is where Indians are expert in choking average teams. Overs between six to fifteen is where you need to rotate the strike well.

 

[gazza619]

Fakhar looking measured.

 

[cricfan432]

No demons in this pitch for now, but it may change after 10 overs

 

[mrtaim3]

45-0 after 6. I’ll take knowing the limitations of our batters

 

[DeadlyVenom]

No wickets lost.

Not enough runs but we bat deep. Need to up ante

 

[rhony]

Pak will be happy with 0 wickets lost. India should be happy with this RR in PP overs

 

[GoUgandaCranes]

20 out of 44 people think that Pak will beat India. MashAllah

 

[mominsaigol]

Didn’t look convincing against Dube.

Also his feet doesn’t move, how will he negotiate swing?

I never said he was a god against pace . Farhan is an okayish batsmen tbh. But today it seems like its his day.

Well his day for his standards atleast.

 

[saabir]

14 overs remaining pakistan have all the wickets in hand..time for pinch hitter..send Shaheen or Nawaz next

 

[Major]

Soo much bs about farhan here ans he has done very well

 

[Markhor]

Decent enough start, just missed out in Dube's first over.

Now the dreaded middle phase.

 

[saabir]

Why Fakhar zaman only nudging and running. Where is his power game ???

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Okay, now we need one wkt, if Zaman stays here he can launch big hits.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

KD what amazing bowling stats in this format…one of modern great already

 

[gazza619]

Pakistan looking careful against Kuldeep.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

50 in 6.5 overs

 

[globetrotter]

Great fielding by rinks....

 

[mango_bite77]

India already save ~10 runs in yhe field

 

[Human786]

56 in 7

 

[Deewana Mastana]

6

That's how you do it

 

[Asif321]

Farhan on fire

 

[topspin]

What a shot Farhan!

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Looks like pak is batting with a plan … seeing fakhar batting and taking singles .. they want to go hard by keeping wickets in hand and have some decent score on board

 

[Ali Active]

shabash lahe raho

 

[mominsaigol]

@Nikhil_cric what did I say bro.

Jinx didnt just end, it went the opposite route entirely.

I'M BACK BABY.

 

[Asif321]

Next Harris then Saim and Nawaz

 

[batandballbattle]

ooh ahh sahibzada!

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Great boys

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

This is more like it Farhan

 

[mrtaim3]

Huge one!!!!!!

 

[sweep_shot]

Six.

PAK - 56/0 (7 overs).

RR: 8.00.

 

[Ali Active]

they need to keep anchors out if these two keep on playing

 

[Asif321]

Hopefully Agha doesn’t send himself or talat after a wicket

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Chuk ke rakh Farhan

 

[Aqib_mustafa]

Man farhan looks a better player than babar babar can never bat like this vs india lets just admit that

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Farhan if he makes 50 will
Be remember for next 10 years

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Man Fakhar seems like a ticking time bomb.

Either he's gonna explode and get out or smash India.

Tension increasing with his batting.

 

[topspin]

Bigger turn out from the Pakistan fans

 

[Asif321]

Lovely Farhan !

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Chuk ke rakh Farhan

Yeh cheez

 

[mango_bite77]

Farhan if he makes 50 will
Be remember for next 10 years

Rizbabar smashed and won 152-0, they are not in the team. So your logic is flawed

 

[DeadlyVenom]

@Red-Indian the thread we discussed Farhan before got deleted.

He can bat man. Just needs to learn how to take singles.

 

[imshally81]

44444

 

[hassan918]

152-0 might be coming.

 

[Pakistani Pace]

India getting slapped now HAHAHAHA

 

[cricfan432]

Fakhar good odi player, average t20 player

 

[Human786]

PK 's game to lose from here ... 64 in 8

 

[Ali Active]

that was clear wide

 

[DeadlyVenom]

India getting slapped now HAHAHAHA

No bro they are still ahead. Pak behind the pacd

 

[cricketfan24]

Waiting for the ak47 celebration

 

[Pakistani Pace]

Loving this from Pak, imagine the big slap across Indians face if we end up winning the most important game out of the 3 and taking the cup home.

 

[Asif321]

Fakhar can go crazy now , we have wickets in hand .

 

[Devadwal]

152-0 might be coming.

@Nikhil_cric Dekho bhai. We are not getting any wickets .

 

[gazza619]

That was wide ball you cheat umpire

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Pitch is not that bad .. Pak is batting with a plan .. Thai sis good … farhan is attacking while fakhar is taking singles .. if farhan gets out we might see fakhar taking the initiative

 

[imshally81]

Should be wide

Bad umpiring again

 

[topspin]

Stupid blind umpire. That was so wide. All of them are on BCCI's payroll

 

[Justcrazy]

64 in 8 overs.

At some point Pakistan has to press accelerator

 

[CricVet]

As pointed by others, this is the phase teams struggle to score in Dubai. Especially having the added pressure of the final, this is the phase Pak will have to win to win it all - overs 7-15. 120-130 in 15 overs with no more than 2-3 wickets loss should ideally set a winning platform.

 

[gazza619]

Fakhar can go crazy now , we have wickets in hand .

Insha Allah!

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 64/0 (8 overs).

Going at 8 an over. Not bad.

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

As soon as the going gets tough for some overs for India, trolls like @Devadwal are nowhere to be seen.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Rizbabar smashed and won 152-0, they are not in the team. So your logic is flawed

It’s good they are not in the team

 

[Asif321]

Harris next please . Don’t do mistake of sending talat or Agha

 

[gazza619]

Shaheen should be promoted

 

[GLORY OF '92]

Need 190 minimum

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

How tf is that not a wide!!?

This afghani umpire has been against us all tournament

 

[Hikaru]

Good start by Pakistani standards.

 

[saabir]

Fakhar putting pressure on his partner by playing run a ball inning..i don't thing he have the power game to take on spinners

 

[GLORY OF '92]

THE PAKISTAN TO BE SCARED OF IS HERE TODAY.

NASSER HUSSAIN 2009 SEMI

 

[Hikaru]

How tf is that not a wide!!?

This afghani umpire has been against us all tournament

Cheating

 

[Devadwal]

Kuldeep meed to go for wickets

 

[psyoptica]

Loving this from Pak, imagine the big slap across Indians face if we end up winning the most important game out of the 3 and taking the cup home.

Abi 2 wickets girne do ya’ll will calm down

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Fakhar woke up

 

[BlackstoneRock]

8rpo 160… with this platform can score 180

 

[Rana]

The mayor

Of slog sweep city!

I haven’t said that in ages

 

[saabir]

Ayub, Agha and Talat should be kept away .they will slow the things

 

[Devadwal]

Fakhar smashed for six
