India (174/4) secure a 6-wicket victory over Pakistan (171/5) in the Super Four clash of the Asia Cup 2025

[m.shah]

Saim again, Salman is terrible captain

 

[DeadlyVenom]

Nah, we have some real power hitters here, after Abhishek, Sky, Tilak, Dube, Pandya all can clear boundaries easily.

You guys cannot lose from here

 

[Justcrazy]

India is toying this Pakistan bowling , maybe they looking to win this by 10 wickets.

 

[Pakpak]

Another huge SIXX from AS

The gap is too big, India are miles ahead

 

[Champ_Pal]

Never seen Gill play that shot. He is experimenting today.

 

[syd_pak]

Why is Saim bowling again? I don’t understand. Are the dumb ?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Abhishek slowed down should've got his 50 off 20 instead of 24.

 

[Greenstorm]

Sufyan should have played. We are a bowler short as usual.

 

[BDfanforever]

Oh boy I was thinking of using Saifuddin as all-rounder but looks like we have to use all 3 of our front line seamers against IND.

 

[ask_analyse_act]

India should go for a 10 wicket win here

 

[OldWarHorse]

This lad is too good

 

[Devadwal]

24 ball half century for Abhishek ​

 

[pillionrider]

Classy celebration from Sharma

 

[TNAmarkFromIndia]

50 for Abhishek! He announces himself against Pakistan!

 

[Ali Active]

india has run away from this game

 

[JaDed]

Who is he kissing?

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Sufyan should have played. We are a bowler short as usual.

Rana and Talat say hello

 

[jamie smith fan]

Saim again, Salman is terrible captain

Yi cxu beihas captain

 

[mominsaigol]

India too strong for PK. Still I'm glad that Pakistan is improving.

Reality check is to obviously get rid of dead weight like talat, Agha who aren't t20 players.

Aus and India are clearly the 2 best t20 teams in the world atm, India no 1 and aus no 2.

Not possible for a transitioning side going through its worst decade from 2020 to 2030 to beat India atm

 

[ameer219]

Why is Saim bowling again? I don’t understand. Are the dumb ?

Exactly my thoughts! Should have brought Rauf in already! This may have been a 190 plus pitch but the bowling is horrendous.

 

[RedwoodOriginal]

Game over in just the powerplay

 

[Hellion]

This is why you never sledge your daddies.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Who is he kissing?

Rauf

 

[Ahmed216]

Too easy batting in second innings

 

[Devadwal]

Sledge karo na .kya hua ab ? Nikal gyi hawa

 

[sweep_shot]

24-ball fifty for Abhishek "IPL" Sharma.

 

[Champ_Pal]

India making a mockery of the target. They are in a hurry to have early dinner.

 

[Savak]

Bits and Pieces spinners like Saim and Nawaz will not work against quality top tier teams. Even Abrar isn't good enough against top teams.

 

[JaDed]

Pak didn't even pay their best batsman Shaheen.. 20 runs short there..

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Salman is such a brain dead captain

 

[Nado_]

If this is the best Pakistan have to offer I can’t see us being competitive for a very long time . This has to easily be the worst era in Pakistan cricket history. Not sure what’s gone wrong , lack of talent ? Domestic structure , over reliance on PSL to judge players ? I don’t know but it’s getting harder and harder to watch

 

[cricketfan24]

pakistan still has a chance we still can do it

 

[Darkrai]

If Pakistan’s paindu batsmen score 170 then you know it’s a 250 ptoch for top teams

 

[Kroll]

Pak just doesn't have the quality to beat this India team. That was our best while this Indian team are barely out of 2nd gear.

 

[Devadwal]

Why is Saim bowling again?

Why not Faheem or Rauf?

Bring Santo to Bowl here.

 

[Nasty Naz]

Fielding is so shambolic. Literally everything got by from the inner fielders, catches being dropped. Pakistan decline continues while rest of the world speeds by.

 

[Hellion]

Oh boy I was thinking of using Saifuddin as all-rounder but looks like we have to use all 3 of our front line seamers against IND.

Lol. Bohat farak padta hai

 

[Deewana Mastana]

Game over in just the powerplay

And some here got excited after Pakistan's PP.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Exactly my thoughts! Should have brought Rauf in already! This may have been a 190 plus pitch but the bowling is horrendous.

Because he got wickets in previous games… but clearly gill is picking him easily .. he got away with his novelty factor .. not anymore

 

[Asif321]

You can’t be going with 180 here against India. Need minimum 200

 

[JaDed]

Bits and Pieces spinners like Saim and Nawaz will not work against quality top tier teams. Even Abrar isn't good enough against top teams.

Abrar is not bad but he didn't see the mistakes Indian spinners did today, that means he doesn't learn.

 

[chinaman00]

India and Pakistan are playing on different planes. India is leagues ahead of this sorry team. Fans and marketing agencies have totally created a false equivalence and rivalry. There’s no competition. Pakistan are a club level team and have been for years.

 

[Greenstorm]

Time to play for net run rate.

 

[prash88]

Many posters here called Abhishek, a tulla...

 

[Deewana Mastana]

What a time to put Jazba Junoon on lol

 

[Energy]

Main bowlers haven't bowled and part timer has bowled 3 out of 8 overs.

 

[m.shah]

Bhai isse acha Kohli hi tha aaram se Marta tha

 

[Asif321]

This talent is even bigger than kohli I and Rohit

 

[Greenstorm]

Bring back Harris Rauf for some galum galoch.

 

[mango_bite77]

Salman is such a brain dead captain

Some of the decisions in this match surely require investigation.

 

[Raja Ishtiaq]

Sufyan should have played. We are a bowler short as usual.

Spinners are pointless against india

 

[sweep_shot]

Time to play for net run rate.

Yeah. Game is gone now.

Need to ensure NRR doesn't get impacted too much.

 

[Champ_Pal]

India too strong for PK. Still I'm glad that Pakistan is improving.

Reality check is to obviously get rid of dead weight like talat, Agha who aren't t20 players.

To be honest, Pak batted really well. They lost their way in the middle, but still 170 is a decent total in a pressure game. Its just that Indian batting is too good for them.

 

[JaDed]

You can’t be going with 180 here against India. Need minimum 200

No you need to bowl tight and hold catches, 180 is good. Gill played this knock out of nowhere.

 

[Devadwal]

Sufyan should have played. We are a bowler short as usual.

Hahha another excuse . Keep them coming

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Many posters here called Abhishek, a tulla... … he is a proper bat

 

[mango_bite77]

This talent is even bigger than kohli I and Rohit

No l ! opposition is crap

 

[amvbfm]

Gill has such great timing and fast hands. Plays the ball at exactly the right time and imparts such great force with his whippy wrists.

 

[Asif321]

Question is will Pakistan be able to beat lanka and Bangladesh . It looks difficult

 

[Dr_Bassim]

Why would Haris sledge Abhishek?

It seems like it totally got them into the game.

 

[saabir]

On batting pitches or placid tracks pakistan is not match to India..their only chance to beat India if it's bowling track of 140-150 runs range ..these Pitches it's too easy for Indian batters. They are used to chase over 200 in IPL easily

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Bhai isse acha Kohli hi tha aaram se Marta tha

I did warn PAK/BD brothers here who were celebrating Kohli/Rohit's retirements. Next gen. T20 batters might actually be superior.

 

[Markhor]

Can't see any planning or thought process behind our bowling whatsoever.

Total inability to deny batters boundaries, close off one side of the pitch, bowl a string of dots, intelligent use of variations etc.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

For Wasim Akram they're all youngsta' beauties

 

[CricVet]

Pak does not deserve to win ONE game with so many numb nuts in the team. It was very very defendable total despite donkey like batting in 15-17 overs...but donkey bowlers buried any chance.

 

[Greenstorm]

Rauf has lost pace as well. Doesn't even bowl at 145+ kph. Oh 149 nvm.

 

[jusarrived]

Many posters here called Abhishek, a tulla...

he is, but damn good one

 

[Savak]

Gill has spanked Shaheen like a school boy every time they have faced each other. Shaheen has no answers for Gill

 

[prash88]

Pakistan needs to pick wickets otherwise this ll end at 172-0 quickly

 

[Ahmed216]

Question is will Pakistan be able to beat lanka and Bangladesh . It looks difficult

Toss very crucial in Dubai

 

[sweep_shot]

Why would Haris sledge Abhishek?

It seems like it totally got them into the game.

Gill started it by sledging Shaheen.

Maybe that was the reason behind Rauf's sledging.

 

[IAJ]

When Pakistan made 171 you could sense Indian batsmen will destroy Pakistani bowlers on this pitch.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Rauf needs to get a wicket

For Wasim Akram they're all youngsta' beauties

What a time to put Jazba Junoon on lol

Poor stuff …

 

[Devadwal]

100/0 in 8.4 overs

 

[RexRex]

Abhishek playing some silly shots on the off side - risky and unnecessary.

 

[Deewana Mastana]

12 an over from the get go - Wasim Akram

This is how you play modern day cricket

 

[Bengaluru]

Afghanistan is a much, much better T20 team than Pakistan. Cant believe I stayed up for this damp squib

 

[Usman Chadda]

These are ideal conditions for this kind of batting. Second innings ball just comes onto the bat much better.

Bowling has been rubbish though, no strategy. Just run up and throw the ball.

 

[JaDed]

India too strong for PK. Still I'm glad that Pakistan is improving.

Reality check is to obviously get rid of dead weight like talat, Agha who aren't t20 players.

Aus and India are clearly the 2 best t20 teams in the world atm, India no 1 and aus no 2.

Not possible for a transitioning side going through its worst decade from 2020 to 2030 to beat India atm

This was the worst bowling and fielding performance by India in a while, PCT should had capitalized on it.

 

[Protea Fan]

Disparity bw the two sides are too evident.Especially the batters

Look the deep indian lineup.Pak doesn't have anything to match this
