13 Overs from hell! Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav & Varun Chakaravarthy Embarrasan Pakistan in Dubai
The Indian spinners played 13 letters, gave only 65 points (5 points over it) and took 6 counters.
The Trio of Indian Spin of Varun Chakaravarthy, Kuldeep Yadav and Axar Patel made the Pakistani strikers dance in their air in the Indian match against Pakistan at the T20 Asia Cup 2025. The spinners bordered 13 overs in total, including 12 consecutive from the 7th to 18.
Pakistan only scored 127 points for the loss of 9 counters. But the spinners gave only 65 points and took 6 counters in 13 overs. In the other 7 overs, Pakistan scored 62 points and lost only 3 counters. The contrast was austere. If there had not been for them, India could have been slightly difficult.
Suryakumar Yadav introduced Varun Chakaravarthy into the 5th on himself. Since Team India had decided to play a single front line stimulator at Jasprit Bumrah, this should happen. But on a friendly ground, the movement was good. Fakhar Zaman took the turn of the mystery, but still, only 8 points came out of the end.
Indian spinners suffocate Pakistan
Kuldeep Yadav was introduced into the 7th and started with a frugal of 2 points. Axar Patel played his first on the next and brought the dangerous Fakhar out. Pakistan was already 3 for 45 points in 8 Overs. At this stage, the Trio of Spin from India had still 9 letters at the bank.
The alarm bells sounded for Pakistan. The ball stopped a little on the ground and also turned. Suryakumar even gave Abhishek Sharma Plus, and he too gave only 5 points. The races had completely dried up, and it was clearly an effect.
In the 10th, the captain of Pakistan, Salman Ali Agha, was caught upon the square leg. Again, it was Axar who worked his magic. In the first 6 letters, Pakistan was 42/2. After the next six, the score was said to be 62/4. Only 20 points at 3.33 with 2 counters falling.
Unfortunately for Pakistan, their spin nightmare was not over. In the 13th, Kuldeep killed the match, which was probably already finished. After dropping Hasan Nawaz in his follow -up, he made him take it while trying to sweep. On the next ball, a Mohammad Nawaz, Bambooled Mohammad Nawaz.
The decisions examination system (DRS) could not save it while India celebrated. On a hatch, Kuldeep played another Googly, but Faheem Ashraf survived. In the next, Axar ended his fate with the figures of 4-0-18-2 while Kuldeep and Chakaravarthy continued to stack on pain.
In his last final, Kuldeep took the counter of Sahibzada Farhan. The opener had been the best striker in Pakistan of the day, marking 40 on 44 balls. Chakaravarthy, which had been without a counter until then, obtained the Faheem counter and signed an incredible evening for the Indian spinners.
