Delhi: In the Asia Cup 2025, the Indian bowlers performed brilliantly in the match played between India and the United Arab Emirates. After losing the toss, the UAE team came out to bat first and was reduced to 57 runs in just 13.1 overs. In response, Team India scored 60 runs losing one wicket in only 4.3 overs (27 balls) and won by 9 wickets.

Rajput said – batsmen came under pressure

After the defeat, UAE head coach and former Indian cricketer Lalchand Rajput said that his team faced such a great bowling for the first time. Rajput said, “They never face such bowlers, they came under pressure from big names.”

Kuldeep-Shivam’s deadly bowling

The Indian bowlers performed brilliantly, where Kuldeep Yadav took four wickets, while Shivam Dubey sent three batsmen to the pavilion. At the same time, Varun Chakraborty, Akshar Patel and Jaspreet Bumrah took one wicket and collapsed the UAE batting line-up.

India made spin strategy

India expressed confidence in spinners in this match and put only one expert fast bowler as Jaspreet Bumrah, and in such a situation, Arshdeep Singh did not get a place in the playing XI.

On this decision, Rajput said, “The world champion team can easily beat other teams. Everything was fine till the powerplay, but as soon as the spinners started bowling, the match changed. There was not much turn, but if Kuldeep (Yadav) and Varun (Chakravarti) are bowling then the big batsmen are also disturbed. The depth is estimated. “
