IND vs PAK Fantasy Prediction Today | Fantasy Cricket Tips, Playing XI, Pitch Report – Final, Asia Cup, 2025

Match Preview

After a whirlwind tournament that started 15 days ago, we have the top two teams, India and Pakistan, who will fight for the ultimate prize on Sunday.

India has been clinical throughout the series and is the only team that is undefeated so far. As a result, they have made it to the finals for the fourth time in the last five editions and will look to defend the finals.

The last time Pakistan won the Asia Cup was back in 2012. Since then, they have reached the finals twice, but glory has eluded them. Their form this year has been far from perfect as well. Nevertheless, they will look to put everything behind them and come here with a fresh mind and with a hunger to win against their arch-rivals, especially after being humiliated by them twice in this tournament.

Injuries & Illnesses

Hardik Pandya left the field in the last match due to a niggle, and updates regarding his availability are awaited.

Pitch Report & Weather Conditions

The pitch in Dubai seems to have improved for the batsmen over the last few matches. The previous match played here on Friday saw an aggregate of more than 400 runs being scored. We are expecting another good batting track for this match. The surface is flat and hard, offering good pace and bounce.

The seamers can expect some swing with the new ball, but once the batsmen settle down, playing shots will get easier. The team batting first will look to score at least 180 runs to put the opposition under pressure.

The weather remains clear, with temperatures expected to stay around 32 degrees.

Sahibzada Farhan has been the top performer for Pakistan with the bat and is one of the top choices. We are also selecting Sanju Samson and Mohammad Haris as they have played some good knocks throughout the series.

Tilak Varma played an excellent knock in the previous match and made it to our team. We are also selecting Shubman Gill as he is among the most experienced batsmen in the Indian squad.

The pitch in Dubai has gotten easy to bat on, as seen in the last couple of games, and that reflects in our playing XI. We have included plenty of batsmen who can play the big shots and score bonus points. That said, the bowlers could still hold the key, and we have tried to select a balanced attack for this match, giving equal opportunities to seamers and slower bowlers.
