Tilak Varma's clutch knock of 69* and his useful half-century partnerships with Sanju Samson and Shivam Dube helped India to their second T20I Asia Cup title and overall ninth title including the ODI editions, with a successful, yet a tense run-chase of 147 runs against Pakistan in the fi
Suryakumar-led Team India continues its rampaging run in T20Is, having won 18 T20Is and dropped just two and tied two ever since it first wore the captaincy armband. Kuldeep Yadav (4/30) sent Pakistan into a shocking collapse, from 113/1 to 146 all out, despite a fine 84-run opening stand

Pakistan opener Sahibzada Farhan became the first batter to hammer three sixes off India pace spearhead Jasprit Bumrah in T20Is following his rollicking exploits in the Asia Cup final in Dubai on Sunday.
Rauf was Bumrah's first victim and overall ninth in the match. After castling his stump, Bumrah used his hand to gesture a plane crashing, which was in a way a direct response to what Rauf did during the Super Four clash not so long ago.
After winning the toss, India opted to bowl. Sahibzada Farhan and Fakhar Zaman opened the innings. Shivam Dube took the new ball and conceded only a four in the first over.
The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) vice-president Rajeev Shukla has lauded the Indian team for their strong performance in the ongoing T20 Asia Cup and expressed confidence that the team will win the title.
This will be the first-ever Asia Cup final between India and Pakistan in the tournament's 41-year history, adding an extra layer of excitement to the clash. Earlier in the tournament, India had already tasted victory against Pakistan twice.
