The answer given with the bat is the best

Tilak Verma said about sledging by the players of Pakistan, “What happened, he cannot speak on camera but it is a little bit, and if this India is a Pakistan match, it happens. But the answer can be given best from the bat itself, then I had to do the same and I did the same.

In the Asia Cup 2025 final, Pakistan scored 146 runs while batting first, although it seemed that Pakistan team would reach 180 comfortably. But the final 8 wickets were dropped by the Indian bowlers within 32 runs, Kuldeep Yadav took the most 4 wickets.
