Favorites India will face Pakistan in the final of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium this evening.
The game is scheduled to get underway at 8:00 p.m. Sri Lanka time.
This is the first time the two sides are meeting in a summit clash of the marquee continental competition, and their third clash in this year’s tournament.
India have dominated the competition, winning all their matches to reach the summit clash.
Abhishek Sharma leads the run-scoring charts, while Kuldeep Yadav sits on top of the wicket-takers’ list, underlining the team’s all-round strength.
Indians will look to continue their unbeaten run, secure a third win over Pakistan in this edition, and lift the Asia Cup trophy for the ninth time.
Pakistan, meanwhile, are eyeing their third Asia Cup title and their first since 2012.
Their campaign has been mixed, with defeats only against India, but they have found ways to win through collective efforts rather than relying on individual brilliance.
The Men in Green will be determined to turn the tables this time and script a memorable victory over their arch-rivals.
