Asia cup final 2025: The final of the Asia Cup 2025 will be played between India and Pakistan at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. Prior to this match, Pakistan captain Salman Ali Aga showed his attitude in the press conference. The special thing is that he also openly made a statement on the recent handshahek controversy and said that his team has complete exemption to answer.
Salman Aga said that in India-Pakistan matches always feeling beyond cricket, but maintaining the spirit of sports is equally important. He reminded that even when he started playing under-16 cricket in 2007, the relationship between the two countries was not good, despite its players always shook hands. The captain clearly said, “I have never seen that any team had deliberately avoided joining hands. Our team will definitely answer in the final, but by staying within dignity.”
Pakistan does not want to disintegrate under pressure
The Pakistani team, which has suffered defeat in both group stage and Super-4 matches against India, wants to avoid pressure in the final. Salman Aga admitted that his team had mistakes in the last matches, which had to bear the brunt of defeat. He said, “There will be equal pressure on both teams in the finals. We do not matter with Indian media or external noise. We just have to rectify our mistakes.”
Captain accepted his shortcomings
Salman did not refrain from criticizing himself. He admitted that his strike rate has not met expectations. He said, “It is not necessary to play at a strike rate of 150 every time. Playing according to the situation is the most important. Yes, I have to perform better so that the team benefits.”
Adventure increased before final
India and Pakistan will be face to face in the Asia Cup final for the first time. India has defeated Pakistan twice in this tournament so far. In such a situation, the pressure is more on Pakistan, but it is clear from the statements of captain Aga that his team intends to come back to a strong comeback on the field.
