Pakistan vs India Asia Cup 2025

 

Pakistan will find it extremely tough against India in their group match of the Asia Cup. Not only Pakistan's batting will be tested but also their so called champion bowlers will be tested as well. Pakistan's batting needs a lot to be desired as they scored a modest 160 for 7 against an associate team Oman.

Only Sahibzada Farhan, Muhammad Haris and Fakhar Zaman played a substantial innings against Oman while the rest disappointed. They should have scored atleast 200 runs against minnows Oman instead they ended with only 160 runs on board on a batting pitch.  These signs are not good in batting playing against India as india usually scores huge totals.

In the end what I would like to say is that it will take a major miracle if Pakistan are to beat this Indian team in Asia Cup 2025.

Pakistan wins the Tri nation series UAE 2025

Pakistan against all expectations and predictions won the twenty20 International UAE tri nation series 2025 by defeating Afghanistan in the final by a convincing margin of 75 runs. No one expected this final to be such a one sided affair and in fact Afghanistan looked favourites to win the title after they restricted Pakistan to 141 for 8 in their innings. No one expected Afghanistan to not even give a fight and collapse to 66 runs all out. 

Mohammad Nawaz bowled the spell of his life to take 5 wickets and in this way played a key role in dismissing Afghanistan to 66 all out. He not only shone with the ball but also with the bat scoring 25 runs which helped Pakistan to a total of 141. 

Pakistan were ruthless with the ball and didnt allow the Afghan batsmen to comeback in the game. Not only Muhammad Nawaz but also Abrar Ahmed and Sufiyan Muqeem chipped in with two wickets apiece.

In the end what I would like to say is that Pakistan is looking good to finish at least as runners up in the Asia Cup to follow.  

Pakistan vs Afghanistan final tri nation series 2025 preview

 

Pakistan and Afghanistan are two evenly matched sides with equal abilities. Here the toss will play an important role in determining the eventual winner of the final as the  team that bats first has won every match in this tournament so far. 

Afghanistan seem to be having a little edge over Pakistan mentally, strategically and ability wise too. Their strategy of starting slow with wickets in hand seems to pay a lot of dividends as they gradually get to a match winning total.  Whereas Pakistan's strategy of all out attack right from the beginning of their innings in batting is too risky and unfruitful.

In Rahmanullah Gurbaz and Ibrahim Zadran they have reliable openers who almost always give them a flying start. In Rashid Khan, Mohammad Nabi and Noor Ahmad they have unplayable spinners. so in this way Pakistan will be facing a formidable team like Afghanistan in the final.

In the end what i would like to say is that it will take a minor miracle and something extraordinary from Pakistan to win this final against Afghanistan.  

Pakistan vs Afghanistan match 4 of trination series 2025

 

Pakistan were outclassed by Afghanistan by 18 runs in the fourth match of the UAE tri nation series 2025. Pakistan team although is as talented as Afghanistan do not follow the right strategy of maintaining high strike rates giving strike rate more importance than winning the match itself.. In this match in particular in order to score at a high run rate Pakistani batsmen got themselves out instead of keeping in wickets in hand just like the Afghans did in their innings of building partnership.

Afghanistan were slow early in their innings but when they started a partnership they had momentum in their hands and from then on they grew in confidence increasing the run rate. Their innings in batting was much more sensible than that of Pakistan. Pakistan need Babar Azam in their team who is the only sensible batsman in Pakistani cricket.

In the end what I would like to say is that Pakistan will find it tough to beat Afghanistan in the Final of this tournament.
