Legendary Indian cricketer Virender Sehwag is out in Pakistan after his shocking collapse in the final of the Asia Cup 2025 in Dubai. Pakistan started firmly innings, in which openers Sahibzada Farhan and Fakhar Zaman held an 84 -run partnership together.
For a moment, Pakistan saw on the track for a large clan against India. But Kuldeep Yadav, Varun Chakravriti, and Indian spin trio of Exer Patel completely changed the game during the mid -over. From a solid 113/1, Pakistan lost nine wickets for just 33 runs and was excluded for just 146.

Virender Sehwag said on the Sony Sports Network, “This is not the first time with Pakistan. They start well and then try to score a lot of runs. They are 100/1, and then they feel that 200-225 should be scored. Everyone tries to hit and get out.”
‘Pakistan is famous for destroying itself’
The former Indian opener further said that Pakistani batsmen often start well, but try to score a lot of runs, resulting in careless shots and unnecessary wickets. His unnecessary moves put pressure on the next batsman, making the opposition job very easy.
Sehwag said, “Pakistan is famous for destroying itself. If you go out while batting well, you pressurize the next batsman. Therefore, a batsman had to live if the inaugural partnership was good. I think Pakistan does not need to get out the bowlers. Their batsmen take out themselves.”
Virender Sehwag exploded Fakhar Zaman to ruin a strong start in the Asia Cup 2025 final
Fakhar Zaman was slammed by Sehwag to ruin a solid start. Cricket Pandit has noted that Pakistan needed a set batter to anchor the innings, but Zaman’s poor shot selection dismissed his dismissal in a vital moment after a comfortable interaction of Powerplay.
He said that Fakhar’s mistake left Pakistan much less than a competitive clan and allowed India to pursue the finals. Sehwag has stated that Pakistan’s batting collapse was a self-proclaimed disaster.
His frequent inability to capitalize on a strong start and maintain partnership has been a recurring problem, eventually handing over the Asia Cup Trophy to India in Dubai.

Sehwag signed, saying, “I would say that the shot selection was not right. We can say that the Indian bowlers bowled well, which they did to an extent, but the shot selection was terrible. Fakhar Zaman, which was set, was out of a wide ball. 180–190.”
In particular, Pakistan was crushed three times in the Asia Cup 2025 by India. In Blue, men ended the campaign as an unbeaten side. Now, they are ready to move their attention to red-ball cricket.
