India faces injury scare before Asia Cup final showdown with Pakistan – SUCH TV



The Indian team has run into trouble ahead of its high-stakes clash against Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025 final tomorrow.

According to media reports, India’s bowling coach Morne Morkel has expressed concerns over the fitness of all-rounder Hardik Pandya and batsman Abhishek Sharma just before the crucial encounter.

The reports indicated that during Friday’s thrilling Super Four stage match against Sri Lanka, both Hardik Pandya and Abhishek Sharma suffered hamstring injuries.

Hardik Pandya reportedly sustained the injury after bowling the first over and left the field.

He remained off the field for the rest of the innings.

On the other hand, Abhishek Sharma was seen holding his right thigh during the 9th over.

He then walked off the field in the 10th over due to a hamstring issue and did not return during the second half of Sri Lanka’s innings.

Speaking at the post-match press conference, bowling coach Morne Morkel expressed concern over the fitness of both players, stating that their injuries would be assessed.

He added that Abhishek Sharma is likely to play in the final against Pakistan on September 28, while a final decision on Hardik Pandya will be made on Saturday, September 27.

RIYADH: Pakistan’s star athlete Arshad Nadeem added another feather to his cap by successfully defending his Islamic Solidarity Games’ gold medal in men’s Javelin here at the Prince Faisal Bin Fahad Stadium on Wednesday.

His compatriot Muhammad Yasir clinched silver.

Nadeem got off to a decent start in the final by registering a throw of 75.44m, which immediately put him at the top of the standings.

The star athlete threw his farthest in the second attempt – an 83.05m effort, which consolidated his lead at the top, while he followed it up with 82.48m in the next attempt to assert his dominance.

He threw at 77.06m in his fourth attempt, while his fifth was ruled out. He concluded his campaign with a 77.98m effort.

Besides him, no other athlete could breach the 80-metre barrier in each of their six attempts, with compatriot Yasir registering the next-best throw of 76.04m in his final attempt, which earned him the silver medal.

Nigeria’s Samuel Adams Kure clinched the bronze medal with a throw of 76.01m, which came in the fifth attempt, and could not reclaim his second position in the standings as he managed 75.84m in his final effort.
