ASIA CUP FINAL 2025 - 796

   ASIA CUP FINAL IND VS PAKISTAN 2025

I am a big  and  ardent  Cricket follower and watch all India related Matches with very keen interest. 

The Asia Cup Matches in Dubai had me watching all the matches ; the key one being with our Arch Rivals PAKISTAN which was getting on to everyone's nerves . The Antics of t0he Pakistanis with both their infield and off field activities ; Shahibzada Farhan ; Harris Rouf and Abrar Ahmad to name just three and their Cabinet Minister and Chief of Asian Cricket Council Mohsin Naqvi left a very bad precedent.

Sept 29 2025 was the day of the much anticipated and eagerly waited clash between India and Pakistan at the DUBAI INTERNATIONAL STADIUM Slated at 10.30 AM local time here in Ajax ; Canada . 

We had an important appointment for lunch on that day at Brampton some 80 Kms away .

By the time we left our house at Ajax, Pakistan was comfortably placed at 112 for 2 at the end of 12.5 overs . Things were beginning to look ominous for India with a target in excess of 200 looking more than a possibility.

The connection with the onboard TV in the Car  and connected  via HDMI with the Laptop and Mobile Phone was masterminded by my 7 th Standard Grandson Adhvay .

Wickets were falling like 9 pins , the last 7 players had scores which reminded one of someone's Mobile Number 081600617 , and Pakistan was all out for a measley 146 .

By the time we reached our appointed place at Brampton India also was in deep Trouble with our mainstays Abhishek Sharma , Shubman Gill and Skipper Suryakumar Yadav back in the hut .

Our much touted Bench strength held their nerves and showcased their class .

TILAK VARMA GARU IN THE COMPANY OF CHETTAN SANJU SAMSON AND  SIXER SHIVAM DUBEY COMBINED TO POST SIGNIFICANT PARTNERSHIPS AND WON A WELL DESERVED VICTORY FOR INDIA . 

A TRULY MEMORABLE MATCH ; WELL DONE TEAM INDIA . THAT THEY REFUSED TO ACCEPT THE TROPHY FROM MOHSIN NAQVI WAS THE REAL ICING ON THE CAKE .


    TILAK AND KULDEEP STEAL THE SHOW       WHILE MOHSIN NAQVI STEALS THE TROPHY              

कभी शर्मा तो कभी वर्मा , बलमा , इन्होने गिरा दी सर पे सदमा






                               CHAK DE INDIA

 Here i am , a Retired Person nearing the three quarters of the Century Mark  , musing about the many  childhood dreams . There are many things which have caught my fancy as a schoolgoing kid and later on in the teens. It is only fair to say that Some of those Important  Dreams , thanks to the lord above have been realized and and sadly there are parts of the same that  are never going to see the light of the day . The early part of my teens was at a place called Kharapur in W Bengal .Now, dont get me wrong , it was not at the IIT for which the place is  obviously more famous for the World over , but the Railway Colony of which my Father was very much a part. I did my schooling at the Railway Mixed Higher Secondary School there. My fathers previous posting among a lot many other places  was at a place called Chakradharpur in Bihar and my early  schooling was entirely  in the Hindi Medium. The school at Kharagpur though had a sizable Anglo Ind...
