**India and Bangladesh Clash in Crucial Asia Cup Super-4 Showdown**

**Dubai:** India and Bangladesh face off today in a pivotal Super-4 match of the Asia Cup 2025. The stakes are high, as the winner will significantly boost their chances of securing a spot in the tournament final.

Bangladesh won the toss and elected to bowl first, putting India in to bat. The match is currently underway, with Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma opening the innings for India.

This match could prove to be crucial for both teams who are hoping to secure a spot in the final. India holds a dominant record against Bangladesh in T20Is, winning 16 out of 17 encounters. However, Bangladesh will be hoping to repeat their one victory against the formidable opponent, which came in 2019.

India are going into the match unchanged.

**India (Playing XI):** Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav (c), Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson (wk), Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakravarthy

**Bangladesh (Playing XI):** Saif Hassan, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Parvez Hossain Emon, Towhid Hridoy, Shamim Hossain, Zakir Ali (wk/c), Mohammad Saifuddin, Rishad Hossain, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Nasum Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman

Bangladesh will be led by Zakir Ali, who steps in as captain for the injured Litton Das, who was ruled out due to an injury sustained during a practice session.

The match is being played in Dubai, where the pitch conditions are expected to favor fast bowlers early on, with spinners likely to play a significant role as the game progresses. In the Asia Cup 2025 so far, 5 out of the 7 matches played in Dubai have been won by the chasing team.
