Team India: The Asia Cup 2025 has ended and the final match remained heartbroken. On September 28, in the Dubai ground, India and Pakistan (India vs Pakistan) competed for the title, in which Team India won by 5 wickets with 2 balls remaining. The Indian bowlers did not allow Pakistan to make a big score, but then chasing the target, in the beginning, there was a big shock and the match appeared to be trapped. However, in the last India won and won the tournament for the ninth time.
In the final, India won the toss and decided to field first. Pakistan showed a great game and scored 113/1 during the 13th over. However, the wicket fell in the same over and then no one among the later batsmen could reach the score of double digit and the entire team collapsed by scoring 146 runs in 19.1 overs. Chasing the target, India lost their 3 wickets for a score of 20, but Tilak Verma held the front. He got well with Sanju Samson (24) and Shivam Dubey (33).
Despite these two being dismissed, Tilak Verma did not give up and stayed till the last and then Rinku Singh (4*), who came to support them, won Team India with a four. Tilak played an unbeaten innings of 69 runs and was the player of the match. In this way, India won the Asia Cup 2025 title without losing any match. Most of the players’ performance remained strong but there is a player who has been very disappointed and feeling that it has now played his last match for Team India. Further tell you who this player is.
In the Asia Cup 2025, this player played his last match for India!
You must be thinking that when Team India became the champion and most of the players managed to do well, then who is the one who probably played his last match. So let us tell that this player is none other than Harshit Rana, the dear of coach Gautam Gambhir. Harshit is considered a favorite of Gambhir, that is why he has been selected in every format for some time, but this time it seems that now he will be dropped from the team.
In fact, Harshit Rana was named in India’s squad as the third specialist fast bowler for the Asia Cup 2025 with great expectations. This young pacer was fed in 2 matches, in which he managed to take 2 wickets. Harshit got a chance in the match against Oman and Sri Lanka.
He did well against the weak Oman but took a fierce run against Sri Lanka. He took 1 wicket in his 4 -over spell and looted 54 runs. At the same time, Harshit could not defend 12 runs in the last over and Sri Lanka had tie the match, which India later won in the super over.
Harshit Rana can be difficult ahead
Not only in the Asia Cup 2025, even before Harshit Rana’s performance was nothing special. However, due to Gautam Gambhir’s kindness, he was being given a constant chance in Team India, but now it seems that his path may be difficult. Harshit has not been selected for the Test series against the West Indies.

At the same time, on the tour of Australia, there is little hope of getting a place in view of Harshit’s recent performance for white ball matches. The right -handed fast bowler has played 2 Tests, 5 ODIs and 3 T20 international matches in his international career so far. He has taken 19 wickets so far, including all three formats.
