A strange moment took place before the Asia Cup 2025 final in Dubai. Ravi Shastri, who hosted the toss, spoke only with India captain Suryakumar Yadav after he chose to bowl first. Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha was instead interviewed by Waqar Younis. Reports say PCB had requested a neutral presenter for the final. The move left fans surprised and sparked debate online. India also suffered a setback as Hardik Pandya was ruled out with a niggle. Rinku Singh came in, while Jasprit Bumrah and Shivam Dube replaced Harshit Rana and Arshdeep Singh in the playing XI.
