The super-exciting India vs. Pakistan Asia Cup 2025 match is now happening, and fans are on the edge of their seats! Pakistan, with skipper Salman Agha in charge, won the toss and chose to bat first at the beautiful Dubai International Stadium. India struck back quickly with early wickets, but Pakistan's Sahibzada Farhan fought fiercely to keep his team in the game. Farhan truly stole the show when he smashed two spectacular sixes off the legendary Indian bowler Jasprit Bumrah, as reported by ESPN Cricinfo. The first six came in the 4th over after Farhan confidently moved forward and sent the ball flying over long-on. The crowd went wild! Then in the 6th over, Farhan struck again, hitting another six over backward square leg. Even Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav looked shocked by Farhan's power hitting. Fans on social media erupted with praise. One user on X (formerly Twitter) said, “Sahibzada Farhan treated bumrah like a club level bowler.” Another added, “Farhan you have passed all of my eye tests brother we have been mocking you for not being good against pace but you smashed bumrah for 2 sixes eventhough you are not that good against pace that’s some class man.” Many claimed that Farhan was the very first Pakistani player to hit a six off Bumrah in any format! But the bowling fight back was fierce too. India’s left-arm spinner Kuldeep Yadav got some sweet revenge in the 17th over by sending Farhan back to the pavilion. Farhan aimed to hit the ball across the line but missed, and Hardik Pandya caught it cleanly. Farhan’s exciting innings ended with 40 runs off 44 balls. So far, this intense contest had both teams coming in strong—India had crushed the UAE in their first match, and Pakistan had outplayed Oman. India’s bowlers dominated, grabbing nine wickets in total. Bumrah bowled 4 overs with two wickets and an economy rate of 7. Axar Patel too grabbed two wickets, with Varun Chakravarthy and Hardik Pandya taking one each. Kuldeep Yadav was the star with 3 wickets. Pakistan ended their innings at 127/9. To sum it up: Pakistan’s Sahibzada Farhan hit two smashing sixes off Jasprit Bumrah. Bumrah took 1 wicket in 3 overs. Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat first.
