India (202/5) & (3/0) defeat Sri Lanka (202/5) & (2/2) in a thrilling super over encounter in the last match of Super Four of Asia Cup 2025

[JaDed]

Gauti and management suck right now.. more shenanigans than proper decisions

 

[MP2011]

He was literally forcing Sharma to give him the goahead to take that review

And to think this guy didn't even bother to bat against Oman

 

[MP2011]

Expect Abhishek to get out any time now

 

[pillionrider]

And to think this guy didn't even bother to bat against Oman

Didn't know that. I like Surya but he has become really annoying. Dunno if he's been this way in the IPL too, more conscious of the camera than his game.

 

[Hikaru]

Abhishek has no chill, lmao.

 

[MP2011]

Would have been great had ICC banned him for a few games or else we are stuck with him

 

[prash88]

Relax guys. One out of form batter in SKY is fine. Axar can be sent up in finals. Axar and Hardik are clutch batters. Tilak is good too..

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Expect Abhishek to get out any time now

I think he will score a 100 here

 

[GlobalCric]

Why Indian fans are getting nervous? In first 3 matches, Abhishek scored low 30s and India still managed easy wins so even if Abhishek fails tomorrow other batsman will rise up...you forgot about Hardik? He is built for big matches!

 

[Rajdeep]

And to think this guy didn't even bother to bat against Oman

Thinks too high of himself and try to copy Rohit Sharma's casual Mumbai style too much.

 

[JaDed]

I just wish we could drop SKy make Gill/Hardik captain, coz SKY can’t even play Lankans on a flat pitch

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Tilak has to play at #3 in the final. Only Gill, Sharma and he have made any meaningful runs

 

[Aqib_mustafa]

Pak must get abhishek out early he is the biggest threat for pakistan if he gets going game might be over for pakistan.

 

[MP2011]

Thinks too high of himself and try to copy Rohit Sharma's casual Mumbai style too much.

I agree.

Thinks himself to be cool a la Rohit.

No one can copy Rohit in being cool, the guy is/was one of a kind

 

[GlobalCric]

I think he will score a 100 here

No, in 80s and 100 saved for the Final..progressive increment!

 

[Vikram1989]

I think sky may have been rushed after surgery and slow tracks are not doing any good to him.he desperately needs a good batting track to regain some form.

This one is not a bad batting track

 

[prash88]

Allow him to bat 20 balls and get his wicket plz

 

[MP2011]

What a stroke from Tilak!

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Harshit Rana like to like replacement for dube lol

 

[Justcrazy]

Sharma 61 not out in 30 balls , one man army for India.

 

[prash88]

Send Samsung in ..

 

[Hikaru]

It's okay, century for the final. Well played Abhishek.

 

[MP2011]

As I said about Abhishek

 

[Justcrazy]

OUT

Asalanka gets the big fish , Sharma gone

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Hope Sanju can find some form as well

 

[JaDed]

Decent innings again.. cmon Sanju show your worth bro!!

 

[GlobalCric]

Thank God! Abhishek is out and left frustrated. It will fuel more fire in him on Sunday! Good knock though...

 

[Devadwal]

Abhishek gone . He needs to Play litte longer in middle periods . Now wait how we bundle inside 160

 

[jnaveen1980]

Asalanka's reaction was priceless. lol

 

[BlackstoneRock]

No 100 for Abhishek

 

[prash88]

Abhishek ll one day score double century in T20s

 

[Champ_Pal]

Finally the middle order gets a chance to bat.

Another great innings by Abhi.

 

[pillionrider]

I literally spit my food out in excitement shouting YES when Sharma got out because I'm a loser who can't think like a champion and want him to have something left for Sunday

 

[Vikram1989]

This one is not a bad batting track

But not a regular track where sky will enjoy the bounce and ball reaching to bat nicely like wankade wicket. definitely he was rushed.if he dont recover any form after aus series, he should step down.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Finally the middle order gets a chance to bat.

Another great innings by Abhi.

He has given a great head start. 9 an over from here 180 plus easily.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Feel for Sanju they making him floater like kl .. all over the place

 

[Devadwal]

Gautam Gambhir is so hilarious!!

Abhishek Sharma is on the crease & now he sent Tilak Varma, both of them are lefty. In last game, he sent Dube with Abhishek & both were lefty. Samson should have came ahead of Tilak when Sky was out

 

[GlobalCric]

Asalanka is a part time blowler...7 wickets in 70 matches..Pakistan has a clue now to get Abhishek out! LOL

 

[cricfan432]

You guys forget he is a proper batsman who added skills not started as a hack

So is saim

 

[MP2011]

But not a regular track where sky will enjoy the bounce and ball reaching to bat nicely like wankade wicket. definitely he was rushed.if he dont recover any form after aus series, he should step down.

Then he should not have come here

 

[Champ_Pal]

Surya nowadays look more like an actor and not a cricketer.

Fool keep giving facial expressions after missing every ball.

These UAE pitches do not suit his style of batting. He likes pace on the ball where he can use it to flick and scoop balls to 3rd man for sixes. That is his bread and butter. These UAE pitches are opposite of what SKY likes.

 

[jnaveen1980]

But not a regular track where sky will enjoy the bounce and ball reaching to bat nicely like wankade wicket. definitely he was rushed.if he dont recover any form after aus series, he should step down.

Ever since he became captain he is failing everywhere.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Sanju has just played 41 t20 and it seems he has been forever like … even saim has played close to 48 t20

 

[Hikaru]

I love Tilak's shots the most in this team. Best looking striking.

 

[MP2011]

He is not much of a cricketer if he can't score on pitches which don't suit his style of play

 

[GlobalCric]

This Indian team needs one more proper batsman in the line up...very long tail today..

 

[BlackstoneRock]

I love Tilak's shots the most in this team. Best looking striking.

Yea he is very good against fast and high pace bowling .. struggles a bit with spin and slow pace but still manages well

 

[MP2011]

Abhishek has scored 40% of India's total runs in this tournament

Insane!

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Man of the tournament easily

 

[jnaveen1980]

He has become a ong formatter. Played very well in Hampshire county this season. Scored 412 runs in 7 matches averaging 80

 

[cricfan432]

Saim was not a hitter in his debut psl season for qg, he added those skills later but had good technique.

 

[Vikram1989]

Ever since he became captain he is failing everywhere.

I think after he sustained an injury ( foot ankle?) in sa , he was never same .In ipl he gained some form but one more surgery eroding all his form.

 

[MP2011]

Tilak played county cricket? Good to know

 

[jnaveen1980]

This Chameera is bowling at 90 mph effortlessly. Good clean action.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Will we see first 200 score

 

[jnaveen1980]

Tilak played county cricket? Good to know

Sundar, Sai, Karun all play county. Doing well.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Will we see first 200 score

Form of players is very low due to random batting order changes. Gambhir is an idiot to do so many changes in every match

 

[Ahmed216]

Will be travesty if 40yr old Ro Sharma plays ahead of Abhishek in 2027 ODI WC.

Currently he's in such good form that game seems very boring once he gets out. Switched off after his dismissal

 

[prash88]

Will we see first 200 score

Nah .. 200 is difficult in this pitch

 

[Devadwal]

These UAE pitches do not suit his style of batting. He likes pace on the ball where he can use it to flick and scoop balls to 3rd man for sixes. That is his bread and butter. These UAE pitches are opposite of what SKY likes.

This is international cricket where conditions are always different which is a good challenge for any top class batsman.

SKY also failed in Indian conditions against England and his downfall has already begun.

Should be dropped if he performing like this .

 

[MP2011]

Too much power has gone to Gambhir's head

 

[Champ_Pal]

He is not much of a cricketer if he can't score on pitches which don't suit his style of play

SKY's shelf life is almost coming to an end. He is 35. Many SENA cricketers retire at that age.

If his woeful form continues in the finals too, questions will be raised on his role as captain and worse the place in the team. Cannot have a walking wicket coming in at No.3.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Too much power has gone to Gambhir's head

He wants to create a KKR , CSK type unit where anyone can bat anywhere. That doesn't work in international as we play in different parts of the world against different attacks.

 

[Champ_Pal]

A very important innings for Sanju. Hope he makes it count.

 

[prash88]

Sanju Samson used to be Hasaranga's bunny. Now he has improved his batting against wrist spin.

I still cringe the way he batted in ODI WC 23 finals.

He is not a timer like Rohit sharma who could play after 35. He needs the ball to come at certain speed. Cumins exposed him in the world cup final with cutters.

he only performs in match conferences and then get 30% fined

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Both Tilak and Samson have batted way too slowly this year - 128 SR and 114 SR

 

[prash88]

I still cringe the way he batted in ODI WC 23 finals.

Bad Rahul Dravid tactics to push him into ODIs. Should have developed a batter like Tilak there in ODIs.

 

[Devadwal]

That was great performance , easily the best performance in Asia Cup by sky

 

[jnaveen1980]

Both Tilak and Samson have batted way too slowly this year - 128 SR and 114 SR

Middle phase acceleration from the word go is harder here. This is why Samson should have come inside power play.

 

[Champ_Pal]

Excellent point. Man, SKY looks almost done. He can stick to IPL leave his spot to many deserving players rampaging in IPL.

I cannot believe we left out a player like Jaiswal out of T20 team.

 

[cricfan432]

Another performer tilak, i think these young fearless indian batsmen will leave kohli’s legacy behind.

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Bad Rahul Dravid tactics to push him into ODIs. Should have developed a batter like Tilak there in ODIs.

It was Rohit who pushed for his inclusion

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

They should call him SKYFALL - and what do you know at this rate he may think it’s cool…

 

[Champ_Pal]

Tilak showing his class. Something Surya lacks. He is too dependent on pitch conditions and bowlers pace.

 

[jnaveen1980]

Bad Rahul Dravid tactics to push him into ODIs. Should have developed a batter like Tilak there in ODIs.

Pandya's injury compounded the things that day.
