India vs Pakistan Live Streaming: How To Watch IND vs PAK Asia Cup 2025 Final On TV And Online?

IND vs PAK Live Streaming: Team India will face Pakistan in the final of the Asia Cup 2025 on Sunday. The IND vs PAK clash will be played at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium from 8 p.m. IST onwards.

Winning isn't everything, but for 11 Indian cricketers, it would be the only thing on their minds when they take on an unpredictable Pakistan after a high-voltage build-up that has blurred the lines between on-field sport and off-field politics.

Over the years, this contest has never lacked in adrenaline, but seldom has it arrived with such a volatile backdrop, where cricket seems inseparably knotted with off-field tension, provocative gestures, and fines slapped on both camps.

Yet, beyond the noise, the cricket itself has been compelling, headlined by Abhishek Sharma's audacious 200-plus strike rate and Kuldeep Yadav's 13 wickets on return. Sadly, even these feats have often been overshadowed by flash-points and feuds.

On paper, though, India are unbeaten juggernauts in the tournament, Sri Lanka alone pushing them to a Super Over in six back-to-back wins overall.

Pakistan, by contrast, stumbled and staggered to the finale. But as their head coach, Mike Hesson wryly noted after beating Bangladesh: "The final is the only match that counts." In this fixture, pedigree counts for little.

Even India's own support staff echoed the sentiment. Bowling coach Morne Morkel, dispatched for pre-match duty, admitted that aesthetics don't matter anymore: "Winning it ugly is still winning."

So far, it has been Abhishek Sharma laying down platforms in the Powerplay. What happens if he fails once? India's batting throughout the tournament in the back-10 hasn't been convincing at all and one doesn't know what is plan B if there is a top-order collapse.

If India leans too heavily on Abhishek, Pakistan's fragility is starker. Their batting, frankly, has bordered on abysmal. Except Sahibzada Farhan, who briefly unsettled Jasprit Bumrah, there has been no batter of substance.

Saim Ayub, touted as their equivalent of Abhishek, has endured a nightmarish campaign -- four ducks, almost tallying more wickets lost than runs scored at one stage.

Hussain Talat and Salman Ali Agha have floundered against India's spinners. Sunday could once again be decided by Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy's guile.

Pakistan's slim hopes rest on their new-ball burst.
