]]> With Pakistan’s exit from the Women’s World Cup following their defeat to South Africa, the knockout schedule has now become clearer. The ICC, which had kept venues on hold, has decided that both the semifinals and the final will be held in India.

Earlier, ICC reportedly considered Sri Lanka as an alternate host for the semifinals or final in case Pakistan qualified, due to political and logistical concerns. However, with Pakistan now out of the tournament, the board is proceeding with its original plan.

The semifinals are scheduled for October 29 and 30, followed by the final on November 2, all to be played in India. With the home advantage and huge fan support, Indian cricket followers are eagerly awaiting Team India’s performance in the knockout stage.

]]> India defeated Bangladesh by 41 runs to enter the Asia Cup 2025 final at Dubai International Stadium. Kuldeep Yadav and Varun Chakravarthy shared five wickets to restrict the hosts. With India’s win, Sri Lanka were eliminated from the tournament. Pakistan and Bangladesh will now contest a virtual semifinal to decide the second finalist.

Batting first, India scored 168/6 in 20 overs. Abhishek Sharma starred with a blazing 75 off 37 balls, powering India’s innings. Shubman Gill contributed 29, and Hardik Pandya added a steady 38 to stabilize the team after early wickets. Suryakumar Yadav, Tilak Varma, and Axar Patel added useful runs in the middle and death overs.

Bangladesh struggled to chase 169. Opener Saif Hassan scored 69 off 51 balls but lacked support from other batters. Kuldeep Yadav’s 3-18 and Varun Chakravarthy’s 2-29 broke the middle order. Axar Patel also struck with one wicket as India applied relentless pressure through spin bowling.

India maintained control throughout, with Bangladesh all out for 127 in 19.3 overs. Tilak Varma finished the innings by dismissing Mustafizur Rahman. India now await the winner of Pakistan vs Bangladesh to face in the final.
