In a rather unusual incident after the India vs Pakistan encounter in Asia Cup 2025 at Dubai, Pakistan opener Sahibzada Farhan was at the eye of the storm. Farhan, who scored 40 runs off 44 balls, uploaded highlights of his knock on TikTok, which is a china-built platform that has been blocked in India. Though his knock had three sixes, two of which were scored against India's pace ace Jasprit Bumrah, his slow rate of scoring was criticized. Fans were of the opinion that his innings did not have the intent required in a pressure game. The backlash grew stronger when Pakistan ultimately lost the match. Farhan's innings, as sluggish as it was in moments, did not have much bearing on the result. Putting up scores of what many considered a "meaningless knock" didn't quite sit with fans, who were quick to criticize the opener on social media.

Abhishek Sharma gave a rocket start with a spree of boundaries off the opening over from Shaheen Afridi, making a point very strongly. Tilak Varma scored 31, while Shivam Dube scored 10. However, it was the Indian skipper Suryakumar Yadav who sealed the victory with a super six. Three wickets in Saim Ayub's bag notwithstanding, India's run-chase was never in doubt. The pitch was conducive to stroke play, and the Pakistani spinners, Abrar Ahmed, Sufiyan Muqeem, and Mohammad Nawaz, found it hard to keep pace with the control and accuracy of the Indians. The game concluded without post-match handshakes between the two teams, and there was an extra layer of tension in the game. India's ruthless win again spelled out the increasing difference in quality between the two teams in this format. For Pakistan, attention turned away from the game to Farhan's TikTok activity, which dominated discussion about his batting display. For India, it was yet another statement victory, further cementing their dominance over their biggest rivals in recent times.
