IND vs PAK: Hardik Pandya Set To Make History, Chahal Takes Backseat

India and Pakistan face off today in the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Dubai Cricket Stadium. In their earlier league encounter, Suryakumar Yadav’s side secured a comfortable 7-wicket win, with Hardik Pandya taking a single wicket.

That performance puts him on the verge of surpassing Yuzvendra Chahal in India’s T20I wicket rankings.

Hardik on Verge of a Milestone

Hardik Pandya has claimed 96 wickets in 117 T20 Internationals. In the ongoing Asia Cup, he has taken two wickets – one against Pakistan and another against Oman – matching Chahal for India’s second-most T20I wickets.

If Pandya picks up a wicket in today’s clash, he will become India’s outright second-highest wicket-taker in T20Is, behind Arshdeep Singh, who leads with 100 wickets.

Hardik vs Pakistan

Hardik Pandya has an impressive record against Pakistan, featuring in eight T20Is and claiming 14 wickets. His best figures of 3/8 and a total of 91 runs with the bat highlight his all-round impact. Fans will be keenly watching to see if he can add another milestone to his name in today’s high-stakes Super Four clash.

India and Pakistan clash again in the Super 4 stage of the Asia Cup 2025 at the Dubai Cricket Stadium.
