India (IND) vs Pakistan (PAK) Asia Cup 2025 Final Today’s Match Live Updates: India and Pakistan face each other for the first time in an Asia Cup final on Sunday in Dubai. It is the third match between these two teams in the 2025 edition of the tournament and in both previous games, India have been the dominant side by some distance.
However, India were pushed to the brink by Sri Lanka in their last Super Four game and, while Suryakumar Yadav emphatically declared that his team has moved so far ahead of Pakistan that there is no real rivalry any more between them, they would be wary of the chances of an upset on Sunday. This will be the sixth India vs Pakistan fixture that will decide the winner of a tournament consisting of more than five teams and it is the latter side that lead the head-to-head record 3-2.

Under the harsh evening sun, the groundsmen are trimming the rough edges of the grass on the outfield. The broadcast hands are untangling the wiry knots of their gargantuan cameras and reassessing their perch. The security personnel are combing every square inch of the arena and fixing the barricades. Pantry staff are chit-chatting, before the manager gives them a proverbial rap on the knuckles.
