A Pakistan fan fainted after Salman Agha and co. stumbled to a second consecutive defeat to Team India in the Asia Cup 2025 on Sunday at the Dubai international Stadium. Speaking to a reporter after the match outside the stadium, the fan was in distress and fainted, with some bystanders calling for CPR.

As compared to their approach in the Group stage match against India, Pakistan batted aggressively and mustered 171/5 in the Super 4 clash on Sunday, thanks largely to Sahibzada Farhan's 58 off 45 deliveries. But The Men in Green were flattened by the opening partnership of 105 between Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill, with the former smashing a 39-ball 74. The Men in Blue needed only 18.5 overs to chase down 172.

Pakistan and Sri Lanka to face one another in a must-win encounter

Meanwhile, both Pakistan and Sri Lanka will face one another in what will be a must-win clash for both sides. They will play on September 23, Tuesday at the Sheikh Zayed Stadium in Abu Dhabi.

The contest against Pakistan is as much a must-win encounter for the Lankans, who had lost to Bangladesh in their opening game of Super 4. The loser between Pakistan and Sri Lanka is likely to be knocked out of the competition following two straight losses.

The Men in Green are notably yet to play in Abu Dhabi in this tournament, while Sri Lanka have played a couple of games, giving the latter some edge. India and Pakistan can still meet in the final if the latter win their remaining two games.

Given the form of the Men in Blue, they are likely to beat Bangladesh and their clash against Pakistan could be a virtual semi-final. Nevertheless, the Men in Green must topple a tough Sri Lankan side first.
