Team India star opener Abhishek Sharma's sister Komal was seen cheering for her brother in the stands as he raised his bat following his explosive fifty in the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 game against Bangladesh in Dubai. The youngster's sister Komal was seen holding her phone and waving for Abhishek.

Das missed out due to a side strain but could be fit for tomorrow's clash against Pakistan.
Bangladesh (Playing XI): Saif Hassan, Tanzid Hasan Tamim, Parvez Hossain Emon, Towhid Hridoy, Shamim Hossain, Jaker Ali(w/c), Mohammad Saifuddin, Rishad Hossain, Tanzim Hasan Sakib, Nasum Ahmed, Mustafizur Rahman.
India (Playing XI): Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Suryakumar Yadav(c), Tilak Varma, Sanju Samson(w), Shivam Dube, Hardik Pandya, Axar Patel, Kuldeep Yadav, Jasprit Bumrah, Varun Chakaravarthy.
At the time of writing this, Abhishek was still going strong but the Men in Blue had lost two wickets in the form of Shubman Gill and Shivam Dube. A win for Team India will most likely ensure their spot in the final.
