Dubai International Cricket Stadium was buzzing with electric energy on Sunday, September 28, as the Asia Cup 2025 final brought the arch-rivals India and Pakistan face to face in a classic T20 showdown. Among the passionate crowd was none other than Yuvraj Singh, the legendary former Indian all-rounder, who watched intently, savoring every twist and turn of the high-stakes battle for continental supremacy.
Yuvraj, known for his cricketing wisdom and mentorship, had a special interest in the performances of two young talents he has closely guided: Shubman Gill and Abhishek Sharma. Unfortunately, the day wasn’t kind to either. Abhishek, who had been the tournament’s leading run-scorer and a beacon of consistency, fell early in the second innings – out for just five runs in the second over.
