In the final of the Asia Cup 2025, Pakistan openers Sahibzada Farhan and Fakhar Zaman shared an opening stand of 84 runs against India. But, from that point onwards, the Indian spin trio of Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, and Varun Chakravarthy simply demolished the middle-order of Pakistan, to help bundle them out for 146 runs in 19.1 overs.
