A jam-packed stadium

Although the previous two matches between India and Pakistan were played amid the calls for a boycott, the Asia Cup 2025 final holds more significance. It is not always that cricket fans get to witness a title clash between the arch-rivals. On Sunday, a large number of fans are expected to turn out at the Dubai International Stadium (Pic: AFP)

Abhishek Sharma's fireworks

So far, Abhishek Sharma has been at his best with the willow in the tournament. He has showcased pure dominance over Pakistani bowlers in the previous matches. On such a big occasion, Team India's dugout will heavily rely on the left-hander to deliver a stunning knock, which he has been doing in all the previous games (Pic: X/@RCBTweets)

Jasprit Bumrah's magic

Over the years, lead pacer Jasprit Bumrah has been a proven match-winner for the side. He is known to strike crucial wickets in crisp situations, and what makes him stand out from other bowlers is his ability to consistently deliver performances in intense matches (Pic: X/@surya_14kumar)

Suryakumar Yadav's big knock

Earlier, after defeating the arch-rival in the 'Super Four' stage of the tournament, Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav stated that the India-Pakistan matches should no longer be considered as a rivalry. Thus, on Sunday, the "Men in Green" are likely to come back with more force and strategies against the Mumbai-born cricketer. Suryakumar, who was once ranked as the number one T20I batsman, will be eyeing to prove his skills on big occasions (Pic: X/@surya_14kumar)

Team India's response to Haris Rauf

In the previous match against Team India, despite suffering a loss, Haris Rauf was seen making controversial gestures, which in turn led to triggered reactions among the Indian fans. Will Team India's batsmen be able to crash Rauf's plane in Dubai? (Pic: X/@surya_14kumar)

The stage is set for both teams to prove their worth, although the Indians have already made statements by defeating the "Men in Green" in previous matches. Sunday evening will decide which team will rise to the occasion (Pic: X/@surya_14kumar)
