Asia Cup 2025: Big Question on Indian Team (Photo-PTI)
The Asia Cup final between India and Pakistan will be held on 28 September. In this match, the pan is heavy of Team India, but some former Pakistan cricketers believe that India can be defeated in this match as soon as 2 wickets fall.
Former captain Wasim Akram said that if Pakistani bowlers settled India's openers Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma quickly, Team India can be implicated because India's middle order has not done well.Wasim Akram said in a conversation with the media in Dubai that if the wickets of Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill of India fell, Team India will come on the backfoot. But the question is, can it really happen? Let us tell you what are the figures? In the last match against Pakistan, Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma had a century partnership in the last match, but before that it is necessary to see what happened in the match.
In the match played on 14 October, Pakistan settled Shubman Gill for 10 runs. Abhishek Sharma was also dismissed for 31 runs, but despite this, Team India won the match easily and in that match the middle order batsman Tilak Verma and captain Suryakumar Yadav batting responsibly.Suryakumar Yadav scored an unbeaten 47 runs and Tilak Verma scored 31 runs. It is definitely that Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill have kept the middle order batsmen out of the tournament till now, but this does not mean that they will not be able to score runs when the openers are dismissed early.
Tilak Verma is the number 3 batsman in the world. His ranking in T20 International confirms what is his stature. Also, Suryakumar Yadav has also done excellent batting in T20 cricket. Players like Shivam Dubey, Sanju Samson, Hardik Pandya are also in Team India's batting order. In such a situation, if former Pakistan cricketers are considering only Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill as a big threat, then this is a big mistake.
