India are set for a blockbuster clash against Pakistan in Asia Cup 2025, Group A, on Sunday, September 14, 2025, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. The match is scheduled to start at 8:00 PM IST. India enter the game after a dominant win over UAE, chasing them down with nine wickets in hand, while Pakistan thumped Oman by 93 runs in their opener.

Amid all the hype and public emotion around the fixture, India’s fielding coach Ryan Ten Doeschate has offered clarity: the team management is unlikely to tinker much with their playing XI.

Ryan Ten Doeschate recently interacted with media and said that the team management is unlikely to make any changes in the playing XI. "We are unlikely to make any changes," said Doeschate to PTI.

It's interesting to see the team making no changes in the playing XI. They played with three spinners against UAE with Jasprit Bumrah and Hardik Pandya being the frontline pacers. All-rounder Shivam Dube also showed his bowling skills and even picked up even three wickets as well.
