One cannot take Pakistan lightly in this match. India is undoubtedly the favourites, but its fielding and middle order remain a concern. During Virat Kohli\u2019s era, India\u2019s fielding and fitness standards were top-notch.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>They will need to work hard on this,\u201d Kaneria said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Kaneria recalled the era when Kohli led India, noting that the team\u2019s discipline, fitness, and sharp fielding often made the difference in tight contests.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>According to the former leg-spinner, while India boasts a strong batting lineup and a formidable bowling attack, lapses in the middle order or on the field could allow Pakistan to gain an advantage.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>Fans across the subcontinent are eagerly awaiting the final, with social media abuzz over team strategies, player form, and key match-ups.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p>The India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2025 final is scheduled for 8:00 PM IST on Sunday at the Dubai International Stadium.
