The Asia Cup 2025 Super Four is on the way and the clash between India and Pakistan at Dubai International Stadium carries massive importance.

India enters undefeated, led by Suryakumar Yadav, relying heavily on their spin trio-Kuldeep Yadav, Axar Patel, and Varun Chakravarthy-on the slow Dubai pitch.

Jasprit Bumrah and Chakravarthy return to bolster the bowling after resting last game. Pakistan, seeking redemption after their group-stage loss to India, struggles with their batting against quality spin. This match also has added off-field tension following India's refusal to shake hands after the last encounter. Despite Saim Ayub's poor performance with the bat, he is likely to play this match. Ayub has so far scored three ducks in three matches, but has 5 wickets with his spin bowling.
