Indian opening batter Abhishek Sharma\u2019s father, Raj Kumar Sharma, expressed pride and optimism ahead of the Asia Cup final against Pakistan.<\/p>\n

He believes that the better-performing team will win and prays for India\u2019s victory. India is set to face arch-rivals Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025 final at the Dubai International Stadium on September 28.<\/p>\n

Asia Cup 2025 Final: India Vs Pakistan \u2013 Live Score<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

Speaking to ANI, Raj Kumar Sharma said, \u201cWhoever plays better will win. We pray that India wins and everyone performs well. Abhishek will put his best foot forward. It is a matter of pride for us that our son is playing for the country. He is serving the country. We have taught him that the nation comes first, and to play for the country first.”<\/p>\n

This will be the first-ever Asia Cup final between India and Pakistan in the tournament\u2019s 41-year history, adding extra excitement to the clash. India has defeated Pakistan twice in this year\u2019s Asia Cup. Abhishek Sharma has been the best batter of the tournament so far, scoring his third successive fifty during the Asia Cup. He smashed Sri Lanka in their final Super Four clash on Friday, scoring a dazzling 61 in 31 balls, with eight fours and two sixes, at a strike rate of 196.77.<\/p>\n

\u2018Pakistan Lost Two Matches\u2019<\/h2>\n

Janardan Yadav, Kuldeep Yadav\u2019s uncle, has expressed his confidence in India\u2019s chances of winning the Asia Cup 2025 final against Pakistan. He praised India\u2019s performance throughout the tournament, stating they\u2019ve played well.<\/p>\n

\u201cBest wishes to the Team. India played well throughout the tournament. They will definitely win today. They have to be careful, though, as Pakistan lost two matches, so it could be better prepared this time. No matter the number of wickets (Kuldeep Yadav) takes, we just pray that it will be effective for the team\u2026 We will speak to him after the match,” Janardan Yadav told ANI.<\/p>\n

Kuldeep Yadav has been impressive, leveraging his variations to outsmart batters. He currently leads the wicket-takers\u2019 list with 13 wickets in six matches at an economy rate of 6.05.<\/p>\n

\u2018Gestures Made By Pakistanis\u2019<\/h2>\n

Masooduz-Zafar Amini, Rinku Singh\u2019s coach, while speaking to ANI, said, \u201cThis will be a high-voltage match. Indian players have been giving a good performance. India will win for sure\u2026 The gestures made by Pakistanis during the last match were wrong.”<\/p>\n

India dominated Pakistan in the group stage match, cruising to a seven-wicket victory, thanks to Kuldeep Yadav\u2019s match-winning spell of 3\/18. In the Super 4s showdown, Abhishek Sharma\u2019s explosive 74 off 39 balls dismantled Pakistan\u2019s bowling attack, paving the way for a convincing six-wicket win for India.<\/p>\n
