India-A VS Pakistan-A LIVE Score: India vs Pakistan matches, no matter the level, no matter the venue, carry a weight far beyond the sport. Inevitably, every contest between the two sides inherits that tension. India A and Pakistan A square off tonight in Doha in what promises to be the marquee clash of the developmental tournament. And leading the buzz is India’s 14-year-old sensation, Vaibhav Suryavanshi, whose jaw-dropping 144 off just 42 balls against UAE has already made headlines. His 32-ball century, one of the fastest ever by an Indian in men’s T20s, powered India to a massive 148-run win, with captain Jitesh Sharma adding an unbeaten 83.
Pakistan A enter the contest on the back of a nervy 40-run victory over Oman in the curtain-raiser but the intensity of an India-Pakistan clash is an altogether different arena.
This will be the fifth India-Pakistan cricket meeting of 2025. Stay tuned as we bring you the latest updates from the ground

India A vs Pakistan A LIVE Updates: PAK against IND's IPL-hardened lineup
Pakistan head into the clash with confidence after overpowering Oman with a commanding first-innings total of 220 in its previous game. Their batters fired collectively, setting a strong platform and ensuring a comfortable win.
But Sunday brings a very different challenge.
Against an IPL-hardened Indian lineup stacked with power hitters and game-ready youngsters, Pakistan’s bowling unit will be under real scrutiny. India’s batting form, turbocharged by Vaibhav Suryavanshi’s explosive hundred and Jitesh Sharma’s blazing knock, means Pakistan’s attack can expect no breathing room in Doha.
Even so, Pakistan will believe they have enough firepower to push India hard. Their recent batting display showed both intent and depth and with a few in-form bowlers capable of striking early, they will back themselves to disrupt India's rhythm and make this a genuine contest.

Ubaid Shah looked fiery on debut, striking early and finishing with an impressive 3 for 29 from his three overs. Saad Masood also showcased his dual skills, taking 2 for 27 in four tidy overs before smashing a rapid unbeaten 19 off only six balls to close out the innings with flair.
India A vs Pakistan A LIVE Updates: Indian trio to watch out for
Vaibhav Suryavanshi arrives with serious buzz behind him and for good reason. The teen batting prodigy detonated a 144 off just 42 balls in the last match vs UAE two days ago. In just nine T20 matches so far, he has piled up 409 runs at a staggering strike rate of 240.58, peppered with 41 sixes.
India A also boast a rising pace weapon in Gurjapneet Singh, the left-arm quick who rattled UAE with fiery speed during his 3 for 18 spell. His ability to swing the ball late and hit hard lengths makes him one of the most dangerous new-ball bowlers in the tournament.
And then there is skipper Jitesh Sharma, leading from the front with a blistering 83 off 32 balls*, a knock studded with 6 sixes and 8 fours in the last UAE match. His form adds serious muscle to India's middle order, giving the team the kind of explosiveness needed for a big-ticket clash like India A vs Pakistan A.
