Today, India and Pakistan will be face to face in the Dubai International cricket team for the Asia Cup 2025 title. No matter what the team’s record was in the tournament, today’s victory is important. But there is suspense on the playing of Hardik Pandya in the final. He can also be out of the finals due to injury, but then the question comes that if Pandya is not there, then who will place Suryakumar Yadav in his playing 11 and why?
What happened to Hardik Pandya?
The Indian team had qualified for the finals by defeating Pakistan and Bangladesh in the first two matches of Super-4, the team’s final match was with Sri Lanka on Friday. In this match, Hardik Pandya left the ground and went out. India scored 202 runs while batting first. Pandya came to put the first over, but did not feel good and left the ground and went out. After this he did not return to the field again, as a result, Sri Lanka took this match to the super over.
How was Hardik Pandya’s performance in Asia Cup 2025?
In the ICC rankings, the world’s number-1 T20 all-rounder Hardik Pandya impressed the bowling in the Asia Cup. He did not play very big innings with the bat, but has played an important role in bowling. Pandya has scored 58 runs in 4 innings played in 6 matches played in the tournament. He has taken 4 wickets, but has been economical.
Who will replace Hardik Pandya?
If all -rounder Hardik Pandya does not play today, then fast bowler Arshdeep Singh can be included in the playing 11. There is also an alternative Rinku Singh, but it is very likely that Arshdeep will be given attention before Rinku as he has also played 2 matches in the tournament. In the last match, he had put a super-4 overs against Sri Lanka, in which only 2 runs were given.
India’s possible playing 11
Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Tilak Verma, Sanju Samson (wicket -keeper), Shivam Dubey, Akshar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jaspreet Bumrah, Varun Chakraborty, Arshdeep Singh.
