India-A VS Pakistan-A Highlights: 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
