India vs Bangladesh, 16th Match, Super Fours at Dubai, Asia Cup, Sep 24 2025 - Match Result

there it is! India waltz into the final, Bangladesh go into a knockout clash with Pakistan and Sri Lanka, defending Asia Cup champions in this format, are out! Back of a length outside off. Mustafizur sticks to his brief of swinging as hard as he possibly can. Gets a decent chunk of this too but does not find the elevation he wants. Arrowed straight to Axar at long off, and India canter to yet another win at this year's Asia Cup!

back of a length outside off. Mustafizur swings and misses

another chance, but another chance that goes down! Length outside off. Nasum winds up and slogs it uppishly towards long on. Kuldeep misjudges it and then has to run in frantically to get there. Might have gotten hands to it on the full but he cannot cling on

another slower ball on a length way outside off. Mustafizur advances and swipes at it with an ungainly motion. Misses the ball and the wide is not called. Bangladesh hard done by perhaps

and another wide. Not sure what India and Dube are trying to do here. May be practice for bowling a wide line but the execution is off again. Well outside off and an easy decision for the umpire once the batter swings and misses

Mustafizur with a boundary now! Dube, for some reason, keeps trying to hide it outside off, with the number eleven on strike. Mustafizur moves across, winds up and mows it between long on and deep mid wicket!

hangs this up on a length wide outside off. This seems to sneak just inside the tramline, though, and the umpire does not call it a wide. Mustafizur backed away and left it, and was puzzled when the wide was not given

length just outside off and Mustafizur continues swinging like a rusty gate. Misses the ball and is fortunate to not see his off stump in a mess

off-pace on a back of a length outside off. Mustafizur has a wild swing at it and hacks it into the mid wicket region. India, for a moment, seem to forget the ball needs fielding and Mustafizur sneaks in a brace

fuller but similarly wide outside off. Nasum opts to play at this and slices it on the bounce to deep third

this is....strange. Seems like a slower ball that has gone wrong and Dube sprays this a mile outside off. Left alone by Nasum and called a wide

and he starts off with a wide outside off. Nasum has a flailing hack at it but does not make contact. Some more exercise for the umpire

back of a length on middle and off. Mustafizur lets the ball come to him before meeting it right under his eyes

back of a length just outside off. Mustafizur, staying leg side of the ball, has a jab at it and is beaten all ends up

slower ball on a length just outside off. Mustafizur plays well inside the line and the ball goes past off stump too

139.8kph yorker on middle stump. Mustafizur's limbs are moving in all directions but he gets his bat down in time to keep it out

shanked again, and Axar, after a couple of bites at the cherry, does hold on! Saif's vigil comes to an end, and India are nearly there now! Zipped in full just outside off. Saif wants to go downtown because, well, he has no other choice. Not quite off the middle of the bat, though, and that brings Axar into play at long on. He stands side-on while stood on the fence, and has one eye on the cushion. He juggles it once but then holds his nerve enough to take the rebound. Bumrah has his second, and India have finally held on to a catch!

slower ball on a back of a length outside off. Nasum backs away and flays it towards deep point

Samson is very confident about the stumping, and have India finally gotten their man?! This is slower on a length outside off. Saif has an ungainly swipe across the line and misses. Samson whips off the bails but replays suggest that Saif's back foot never left the ground, or the case.

up in the air, and it goes down yet again! A cat has nine lives, but Saif probably has more! Looped up on a fullish length outside leg. Saif looks for the sweep and clinks it. Goes well up but Abhishek misjudges it at deep backward square leg. Has to lunge forward at the last moment, but cannot quite hold on
