Cricket fans are gearing up once again for an India-Pakistan showdown, and this time it’s the Rising Stars Asia Cup 2025 all set to light up Doha, Qatar. India A will take on Pakistan Shaheens in Match 6 of the tournament on Sunday, November 16, promising another high-voltage contest that’s already buzzing across social platforms.
A 14-year-old batting storm: Vaibhav Suryavanshi
The biggest talking point ahead of this clash is none other than 14-year-old sensation Vaibhav Suryavanshi, who stunned everyone with one of the wildest T20 knocks this year. He smashed 144 off just 42 balls, blasting 15 sixes and 11 fours against UAE A. That innings didn’t just give India A a massive win, it instantly turned him into the most-watched youngster in the tournament.
