He is the main reason for all the mess in this tournament. I mean, I know you support his political party but as ACC head his behaviour has been shameful.

Main reason is BCCI. I know you will never accept it but undoubtedly it's true.

But he has done some dumb stuff too as a reaction.
 
We get a skewed perspective from Indians on this forum. They were hellbent on downplaying this tournament, but their team is very emotional and overjoyed at the victory.

Clearly means a lot.

They have won two tournaments unbeaten in UAE now.

It will be difficult for any side to overrun them in the t20 wc.
 
Asian Cricket Council decided to give them their medals or winning trophy. LMAOOOO


Suriya deserves this

More due to how tight the match was.
 
Excellent stuff from team India. Demolished them in 3 consecutive sundays, didnt shake hands and neither collected the trophy.

#Proud

Lol celebrate this "win". This is all Pakistanis are left with.

India won it (and were defending champions anyway).

They will collect it tomorrow and do a photoshoot lol.
 
Salman Agha in a post match ceremony:

"It is a tough pill to swallow right now. We lost wickets while batting, we were outstanding with the ball but didn't have enough runs on the board. We didn't rotate strike and lost too many wickets. We have to sort out our batting very soon. They bowled outstandingly well, they (India) needed 63 from 6 overs and I thought we had the game. But the batting was what cost us the game. I am very proud of the team and there is so much to look forward to, we will work hard and come back stronger."

And each time gave them hope.

Today will be lifetime trauma considering how dominant they were at the start of both innings.
 
INDIAN TEAM BOYCOTTED

Simon Doull announced that the Indian team won't be collecting the Asia Cup Trophy.

Embarassing for Naqvi.
:kp
 
Lol epic trolling from ICT, made PCT come out of their dressing room, made Naqvi stand on the dais and then naah we aint having the medals.....

it was probably munaf alone in slippers. All of India knows Munaf patel as a jovial, barely educated peaceful giant ...but here ur half team was in slippers. .. its unpardonable bro. esp after 1 hour delay

it was a farce all round.

Pakistan should have accepted the loss with dignity and India took a weird stance at the end after being jovial with Naqvi at the start.

Losing since 1947. what a consistent country.

" its not important how they were down , what's imp is why they were down". Legendary quote form CDS ANIL
 
What a stupid decision by India for not accepting the trophy. U should have either boycott the game all together in the beginning. this is not a battle field it's a game of cricket where people pay to enjoy .. BJP domination in Indian cricket..they made their MP as coach and Jay shah son of Home minister as ICC head. Sports and politics were always seperate .now this is the new low
 
To my Indian bros, what are the must watches now?

Tapmad, Backward Point, Pro Sports, Sports Roundup?

Indians will have put timestamps of the live watches by tomorrow lol.

Good entertainment for a couple of days.

naah the point is that you (as in Pakistan/PCB) are not worthy of giving Ind a trophy that we won outright ( quite literally ) nor do we even belong on the same stage

thats a serious flex :cool::cigar💪

Hum sab war jeete hain convincingly but ek wo surgical strike jisme hamara pilot pakdagya tha and this one Sindoor where we lost some jets that's a open secret. Ek ka malba to Pulwama Pampore mein pada hua tha ..then we change the strategy and their airbases were hit badly . Whole world knows this. Only BJP bhakts are blind to it
 
Wasim Ghulam said:
They Somehow want to show that victory in Cricket = Victory in Battle field .. See tweet of modi..he is still telling his public , He won operation Sindoor. Such Desperation never happened between India And Pak , the situation used to be even worse after Kargil or 2008 Attacks but never ever Indians stooped so low as they are doing now..reason they got spanked in May and their Ego is hurt..now Cricket is only thing they can vent out

Politicians need to keep the public high so their vote bank remain intact. It's all about vote bank here. They want to win at any cost ..one party is ruthless here they want to rule for next 50 years ..every institution is compromised.be it judiciary, ED, CBI now election commision too. We used to laugh on pakistan election but situation getting same here . Some opposition leader have expose their scam on elections recently.. all this said this does not mean I don't love India. It's just one party I hate the most.

U mean ??? I'm from India and I would like to see Yadav holding the trophy. This politics in cricket to balance the act of playing cricket even during boycott have ruined that movement.

some things are beyond cricket but I understand what you are saying ... we should never have played against Pakistan but considering that we had to play this is the best riposte ... quite nothing like it.

what amazes me he doesn't get banned despite all that ? i mean how the hell can u mock non muslims with the way terrorists killed innocents in pahalgam?

speaks of the low standard the mods have for such users.

they will delete those posts but not ban the person who spews so much venom and hate?

Yes and if I say something bad about certain ethnic groups it gets deleted right away. It’s a shame. What I can say is they are afraid to hear the truth because they know I am right.

No one's being bitter, you had posted something about making Indians cry and Ganges, gave you back a bit of your own medicine here Doc...

No need to be so petty minded next time about it

Yes had Pakistan won it would have been apt.

However, it didn't happen.

Now go enjoy among yourselves.

It’s ok. Their over excitement in cricket has spread to other areas in life as well, not realizing that their soldiers are still being swatted like flies at the loc… they have texting fingers not trigger fingers, men sit at home to text paragraphs on Pak forum, women are sent to the frontlines to fight for them.

Best for them to stay distracted with ball and balla :wenger

No matter what they win, they squeal like losers...what a pathetic nation even at the height of joy

I came here to congratulate them...but NO...never again in life...these vermin will always be sore losers. Sooner, rather than later, they will get defeated.
 
No other team in the world has a cabinet minister as head of their cricket board. I don’t even know how ICC allows this, because this is usually a big problem with Olympic committees.

I do think, India can make a case of refusing trophy from the interior minister of Pakistan.

Would like to see the reason we should never played against Pakistan?

SR is nothing if not looked without a context. The best example is the legend and only king kohli… his end sr may not be impressive but he knows when to hit a four, six, take singles and doubles… many people would say he builds his innings in his singles and doubles which is true but when the time comes to hit a four or six he executes it… he is never under pressure to play at high sr at all times… to the contrary for someone like Abhishek his context and game is build on high SR like how sehwag use to be .. first reaction to the ball is to hit for a four or six and if can’t then look for single and if you still can’t then defend
 
In a gripping finale at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium, India edged past Pakistan by five wickets with just two balls to spare, successfully chasing a modest target of 147 to win the ACC Men’s T20 Asia Cup 2025.

Pakistan, finishing as runners-up for the fourth time in tournament history and second time in the T20I format, put up a spirited fight. Their innings was anchored by an 84-run opening stand between Sahibzada Farhan and Fakhar Zaman — the second-highest partnership for Pakistan against India in T20Is, trailing only the unbeaten 152-run stand by Babar Azam and Fakhar in 2021 at the same venue.

Farhan notched his fifth T20I fifty (second against India) off 35 balls before falling in the 10th over. Fakhar added a solid 46 off 35 deliveries, including two fours and two sixes, before being dismissed in the 15th over with the score at 126-4. Kuldeep Yadav turned the tide with a triple strike in the 17th over, helping restrict Pakistan to 146 all out in 19.1 overs. Axar Patel, Varun Chakravarthy, and Jasprit Bumrah chipped in with two wickets apiece.

In response, India’s chase began shakily. Pakistan struck early, reducing India to 20-3 within the first four overs. Faheem Ashraf removed openers Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill, while Shaheen Shah Afridi dismissed Suryakumar Yadav.

Tilak Varma then steadied the innings, crafting a composed unbeaten half-century. He partnered with Sanju Samson for a 57-run stand off 50 balls, taking India to 58-3 at the halfway mark. Abrar Ahmed broke the partnership in the 13th over, dismissing Samson for 24.

With 70 needed off 46 balls, Shivam Dube joined Tilak at the crease. Despite tight bowling from Shaheen in the 17th over, the duo added 60 runs off 40 balls for the fifth wicket. Faheem returned to dismiss Dube and conceded just seven runs in the penultimate over, leaving Haris Rauf to defend 10 off the last.

India held their nerve, sealing the win with two balls to spare. Faheem Ashraf finished with impressive figures of 3-29, while Shaheen and Abrar claimed one wicket each.

Kuldeep’s four-wicket haul and Tilak’s unbeaten knock proved decisive as India lifted the Asia Cup trophy after a thrilling contest.
