Vaibhav Suryavanshi Provided some early momentum by scoring 45 runs in 28 balls with the help of five fours and three sixes, while Naman DheerAn explosive inning of 35 runs in 20 balls added some life to the middle overs.

Pakistan A’s spectacular victory over India A
The flow of the match highlighted the tactical superiority of Pakistan Shaheens. India A faltered after losing Priyansh Arya Early on, and despite flashes of brilliance from Suryavanshi and Dheer, the middle order collapsed under increasing pressure. The scoring rate declined after the ninth over as a result of maiden and dot balls scored by Pakistan’s spinners and fast bowlers. Shaheen’s disciplined bowling led to regular fall of wickets, especially in the death overs, reducing the Indian team to 136 runs from 91/2.
Chasing the target, Shaheen looked aggressive from the very first ball. Sadaqat’s half-century off 31 balls set the tone and chasing the target became a formality as India’s bowlers failed to pose any serious threat. The Shaheens’ openers scored at a run rate of over 10, took advantage of loose balls and took advantage of extras. Extras (17 runs), including 13 wides, further damaged India’s defense and underlined the indiscipline of their bowling. Pakistan reached 137/2 in just 13.2 overs and sealed one of the most emphatic wins of the tournament.
Sadaqat, who was named player of the match for his 79* runs and two important wickets, exemplified Pakistan’s emerging talent. The win not only cemented Shaheen’s position in Group B but also sent a strong message to rivals ahead of the knockout stage at the Asia Cup Rising Stars 2025.
