India vs UAE LIVE Score, Asia Cup 2025: The Indian cricket team starts its Asia Cup campaign on Wednesday (10 September) against the hosts United Arab Emirates (UAE) at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium. The India vs UAE match will start at 8 PM IST (6.30 PM Local time). The Asia Cup 2025 will be played in the T20I format, meaning Suryakumar Yadav returns as the captain of the Indian team.
Interestingly, the BCCI selectors have picked Shubman Gill as the vice-captain in place of Axar Patel. Gill’s ascension could bring an end to Sanju Samson's spot in the playing XI as India now enter the preparatory phase for the 2026 T20 World Cup.
Besides including Gill in the playing XI, India also face the challenge of sorting out the rest of the team as they are blessed with a plethora of top talents. Kuldeep Yadav will be looking to get a game after missing out on five Tests in England, but his inclusion, along with Varun Chakravarthy, could force India to have four specialist bowlers, while Shivam Dube and Rinku Singh may miss out. If India try to fit in Rinku and Dube, then one of the bowlers is sure to miss out.
Hardik Pandya and Axar Patel will most likely be the other bowling options in the playing XI, while Abhishek Sharma, Suryakumar, Tilak Varma and Jitesh Sharma are also set to be a part of the playing 11.
