Asia Cup 2025: India's match list, date and time, live streaming details

After two consecutive ICC trophy wins and a brilliant outing in Tests in England, the Men in Blue are ready to take up another big challenge in the form of the Asia Cup 2025, starting September 9 in the UAE. Though India was originally scheduled to host the event, it will now be played in the UAE and Dubai to ensure the smooth running of the tournament, as per ACC chief Mohsin Naqvi. The tournament will be played in the T20 format instead of the ODI format used during the last edition of the tournament. 

 

India, which will start the tournament as the defending champions, will be playing the first big event since the retirement of Rohit Sharma, Virat Kohli and Ravindra Jadeja, as all the pressure will be on the shoulders of the young Indian brigade featuring Abhishek Sharma, Tilak Varma and Sanju Samson, and will be led by Suryakumar Yadav.

 

However, the participation of the Indian skipper is still uncertain due to a hernia surgery earlier this year. He returned to action late last month at the NCA in Bengaluru but is yet to be deemed match-fit by the BCCI. Additionally, it has also been reported that ace Indian pacer Jasprit Bumrah will miss the event due to injury. However, both these questions can only be answered once India announces its official squad for the competition.

India drafted in Group A

India has been drafted in Group A alongside Pakistan, Oman and the UAE, and will start its campaign against the UAE on Wednesday, September 10, before facing arch-rivals Pakistan on September 14.
