The wait is finally over. After 41 years of the Asia Cup, we’re about to witness something that has never happened before—India vs Pakistan in the Asia Cup final. That’s right. For the first time since the tournament’s birth, these two cricket giants are clashing for the ultimate prize.
India walk into Sunday’s final looking sharp, dominant, and full of confidence. They’ve already beaten Pakistan twice in this edition. But here’s the twist—when it comes to big finals in multi-nation tournaments, the numbers lean towards Pakistan.
The Head-to-Head Story in Finals
India and Pakistan have crossed paths in five major finals of multi-nation tournaments (outside bilateral series). Out of those, Pakistan hold a slight edge—three wins to India’s two.
- Pakistan’s famous wins: Who can forget Javed Miandad’s last-ball six in the 1986 Austral-Asia Cup final? Or the hammering India took in the 2017 Champions Trophy final at The Oval, losing by a massive 180 runs?
- India’s victories: India fans still cherish the 1985 World Championship of Cricket triumph, and of course, the iconic 2007 T20 World Cup final win under MS Dhoni.
So, while India might be riding high right now, history tells us Pakistan know how to step up when it’s all on the line.

India’s Current Form
Let’s be real—India look unstoppable right now. Rohit Sharma’s men have ticked every box in this Asia Cup. The batting has been on fire, the bowlers have been disciplined, and they’ve already beaten Pakistan twice in this very tournament (group stage + Super Four).
That’s not just winning—it’s dominance. And in T20 cricket, momentum often matters more than history books.
Pakistan’s Psychological Edge
Still, Pakistan won’t be written off so easily. Their head-to-head record in finals could give them that extra bit of belief. They’ve proven before that when the pressure’s at its peak, they can deliver knockout punches.
This clash, therefore, is more than just another India-Pakistan game—it’s a battle of history versus form.

- A match that could define this rivalry for a new generation.
No matter which side you’re on, this first-ever Asia Cup final showdown between India and Pakistan promises a rollercoaster of emotions.
