Asia Cup Points Table: Pakistan Beat UAE by 41 Runs, Set Up Thrilling Super Four Clash with India

Asia Cup 2025 Points Table: Pakistan Beat UAE by 41 Runs, Set Up Thrilling Super Four Clash with IndiaPakistan set up another exciting and tense match against their big rivals India after beating the United Arab Emirates by 41 runs in Dubai on Wednesday. This win meant both Pakistan and India moved on from Group A to the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup. Pakistan ended the group stage with 4 points from 3 matches, while India topped the group with 4 points from 2 games and still have a match against Oman on Friday. The hosts UAE, with 2 points from 3 games and Oman with no points from 2 matches, are out of the tournament.

While Group A is already decided, Group B is still wide open. Sri Lanka lead with 4 points from 2 games and a strong net run rate (+1.546), while Bangladesh are second with 4 points from 3 games but a negative NRR (-0.270) leaving their progress depending on other results. Afghanistan have 2 points from 2 games and an impressive NRR (+2.150) and will face Sri Lanka in a crucial match on Thursday. Only Hong Kong, who have lost all three games, are out. The last Group B match will decide which two teams join India and Pakistan in the Super Four.

Pakistan got off to a shaky start against UAE, but Fakhar Zaman’s 50 off 36 balls and Salman Agha’s 20 helped steady the innings. Shaheen Shah Afridi’s late unbeaten 29 lifted Pakistan to 146/9. For UAE, Junaid Siddique shone with 4-18, while Simranjeet Singh took 3-26.

In reply, UAE could only score 105 in 17.4 overs. Abrar Ahmed (2-13), Shaheen (2-16), and Haris Rauf (2-19) tore through their batting, with only Rahul Chopra putting up some fight with 35. The match started an hour late because of Pakistan’s ongoing disagreement with match referee Andy Pycroft over the earlier controversial handshake with India. Despite all the drama, Pakistan moved forward and will face India again in Dubai on Sunday in what promises to be another intense game.
