Pakistan (135/8) defeat Bangladesh (124/9) by 11 runs in a nail-biting encounter of the virtual semi-final of the Asia Cup 2025

[RidiculousMan]

Well played Haris

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

It’s a game at 140 I think. Anything less BD will get past

 

[saabir]

Big big wicket..today he was looking so good ..Nawaz is the key for pak now if they have to go above 130

 

[Nikhil_cric]

Batting conditions have gotten easier since the 12th over.

 

[Azaad]

Unfair on Haris, the only chance he gives and he is caught! Deserved a drop like his colleagues...

 

[sweep_shot]

Faheem can hit big.

 

[RexRex]

Bangladesh are too strong for Pak. Throw in the towel.

 

[Usman Chadda]

Bangladesh has this in the bag, our power play batting messed up this game

 

[Asif321]

29 from 14 . Can they get that 140

 

[ads101]

Luck is going Pakistan's way. If they somehow beat us in final, it will be tough day for us here.

Especially for @Devadwal and I after all the mayhem we have caused

If we somehow get to the final we’ve got to win toss and bat second. There’s just no hope otherwise.

@daytrader

I feel bad about what I have said to you about the Canadian claims or any other claims.

I apologise as well. I hope you are willing to let bygones be bygones. But if not, allow me to make up for the next 2 years .

We've been down this road before

Anyways no hard feelings, I don't mind the banter. No need to make anything up brother but I will remind you of this post if you go astray

 

[light]

Athar Ali back to his regular cheering voice again LOL

 

[chinaman00]

Faheem can hit big.

But will he hit big?

lmao, it’s alright.. I faced 2017 CT here along with few other, all Indian posters were all cocky and confident.

The Indian crowd leaving meme still annoys me

 

[Asif321]

26 from last 2 overs to get 140 .

 

[Devadwal]

Thanks for wide mehndi. 20k profit

 

[cricfan432]

Rizbar can perform in UAE better than most, of course they can't bat like Sharma and Gill but far better than this sorry lot that you have on the ground.

wc is in srilanka not dubai, and babar is no good player of spin

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 114/7 (18 overs).

2 overs to go.

Simple, log off. Shut down, go for a nice family trip

 

[cricfan432]

I remember usa and India and I dont support Ba/Riz.

Im not changing my stance on babar or Rizwan. If a better replacement comes along then sure. I'll be the first to boo them.

But agha is even slower then rizwan in t20 atleast. Babar azam on current form is night and day > saim.

If a better replacement exists, then I dont see why pcb wpuldnt have already selected them in asia cup.

List those players please.

Khwaja nafay wkb, maaz sadaqat, yasir khan, abdul samad(lower order) , haider ali, irfan niazi

I made good profit In this over. I bet for 10 runs and they scored 12

To be fair once he hit form we were very good. We smashed England before.

I haven’t seen our batting look good a single game this tournament really even against the associate sides.

It’ll be down to the bowling, but both times against india it’s looked poor against them.

 

[Asif321]

Chakka 20 from 11 now

 

[imshally81]

6666

 

[Devadwal]

Gone

 

[sweep_shot]

Six from Nawaz.

Nawaz was dropped earlier. Turning out to be a costly drop.

 

[ads101]

Bangladesh will be disappointed by this fightback here.

 

[Asif321]

Gone Nawaz

I’m more confident this time but law of averages catch up.. we can’t keep beating PCT consistently.

 

[The Bald Eagle]

Bangla brothers deserve to win this tournament

 

[sweep_shot]

M Nawaz is out. Phew!

Great catch.

120/8.

 

[imshally81]

Gone

 

[light]

Bangladesh will be disappointed by this fightback here.

They dropped so many catches. Deserves this at this point

 

[JaDed]

Six from Nawaz.

Lol yeah he was on 0, IF BD lose this one its coz SSA and Nawaz Cameos

 

[Asif321]

Can we get 18 from 9 now .

 

[The Bald Eagle]

I’m more confident this time but law of averages catch up.. we can’t keep beating PCT consistently.

You got your wish

 

[m.shah]

Pakistan need good finish here. Nawaz gone too

 

[saabir]

Pakistan best batter Mohd Nawaz goes. That's the game changer . He could have taken them to 140

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

120/8 - that last wicker means opportunity slipping away from Pakistan.

 

[sweep_shot]

Bangla brothers deserve to win this tournament

India are favorites.

BD or Pakistan have to play very well to beat them (depending on who go to final).

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

If there any team which can make a hash of this it is BD. Trust them to lose this one.

 

[daytrader]

Taskin has an aura about him. The red kit brings it out

 

[globetrotter]

Nawaz gone, but poor bowling from BD... many short pitch deliveries

 

[ads101]

Nawaz’s batting has really added some depth to this line up

 

[GoogleToggle]

Batting conditions have gotten easier since the 12th over.

Pak batted so poorly in the first 10 that anything will look better after that

 

[JaDed]

You got your wish

Which is?

 

[hassan918]

Well played Haris

Not sure if this innings would be enough for him to keep his place in the team.

 

[mominsaigol]

Khwaja nafay wkb, maaz sadaqat, yasir khan, abdul samad(lower order) , haider ali, irfan niazi

Abdul Samad is good.

Niazi is another chacha, Can be a good test player but otherwise is avg in whiteball.

Nafay, Maaz Sadaqat are too young and untested atm, its silly to play them when 2026 t20 wc is so close by.

Haider Ali due to his case wont make a comeback.

Yasir Khan Sucks

 

[globetrotter]

Both sides are panicking at regular interval as India in Final

 

[mango_bite77]

Nawaz’s batting has really added some depth to this line up

Only good in UAE.

 

[sweep_shot]

Lol yeah he was on 0, IF BD lose this one its coz SSA and Nawaz Cameos

Yes. BD could've bundled them out for 100-110.

Those dropped catches were poor.

Anyway, things are still under control.

No talent at all. Simple

 

[Prince of Dorne]

Bangla brothers deserve to win this tournament

They deserve to win 2 things, jack and shiit

 

[Aang_The_last_airbender]

India must be praying that Pakistan win this match so they can ensure the Asia Cup!

There has been NO Asia Cup final without India or Pakistan but there also have been ZERO India vs Pakistan Asia Cup Finals!!
a perfect EXOR gate

 

[Rajdeep]

C'mmon Taskin...chuck as much as you want today. BCCICC is with you in this endevour

 

[Asif321]

16 needed in last over for 140

 

[GlobalCric]

Bangladesh dropped catches have costed them about 40 runs between Afridi and Nawaz...let's see how this will make a difference in the outcome of this match.

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 124/8 (19 overs).

Final over. Need a good over from Mustafiz.

 

[RidiculousMan]

M Nawaz is 10X the T20I batter than Talat and Salman

 

[Ali Active]

can pak get to 140

 

[Devadwal]

Please score 6 more

 

[Usman Chadda]

Bangladesh dropped catches have costed them about 40 runs between Afridi and Nawaz...let's see how this will make a difference in the outcome of this match.

It’s a way below par score whatever we get.

Bangladesh have chased 168 here, so they are romping home here.

 

[sweep_shot]

PAK - 124/8 (19 overs).

Final over. Need a good over from Mustafiz.

BD are slow with over-rate. They have been penalized. 1 less fielder outside the circle.

 

[Local.Dada]

Let’s send Manoj Tiwary and Yusuf Pathan the TMC party members to strengthen Bangla middle Order today. I don’t have confidence

 

[globetrotter]

BD wicket keeper tried to copy Dhoni with wrong hair style

 

[Cryin Out Loud]

Well if ever a pinch hit was needed from Faheem it’s now

 

[Asif321]

15 off 5 needed

 

[Devadwal]

Four. Sabash

 

[globetrotter]

135 runs to win for bangladesh

 

[ads101]

Just get 130 at least

 

[hoshiarpurexpress]

Faheem era today @RyanRyan10

 

[Local.Dada]

Prediction- Saim will pick up a 5fr.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

One thing current pak cricket management has done is to reward players with games who bring in aggressive mindset and goes for shots.. in the current scenario it may not bring immediate result due to poor development of current players but in the longer run it will yield results as anyone new who wants to play for pak would know that they have to have big hitting game .. obviously their technique and shot selection has to be good too but .. this is the way forward

 

[Asif321]

4444 . 11 from 4 now

 

[Devadwal]

Please score 6 more

Done

 

[imshally81]

444

 

[sweep_shot]

Four.

129/8.

4 balls to go.

 

[BlackstoneRock]

Will be a thriller of a game

 

[Asif321]

140 possible . 9 needed

 

[BlackstoneRock]

140 possible . 9 needed

They should well in sight
