India vs uae t20i head to head: The Asia Cup 2025 has started and the Indian team is going to confront the United Arab Emirates (UAE) on Wednesday (September 10) in their first match. This match will be played at Dubai International Cricket Stadium. India is considered to be the biggest contender for the title this time. While Team India would like to start the tournament with a big win, it can prove to be dangerous to take a team like UAE lightly.

India-UAE’s head to head record

India and UAE have clashed only once in T20 International. The match was held in the 2016 Asia Cup, in which India won by 9 wickets. Apart from this, India has defeated UAE every time in three matches. The last time the two teams faced each other in the 2015 ODI World Cup.

Talking about the recent performance, India’s record has been excellent. Since the last T20 World Cup, Team India has won 24 matches and has suffered defeat in just 3 matches. This figure explains why this team captained by Suryakumar Yadav is considered to be the contender for the title.

Dubai pitch and conditions

The Dubai pitch is always considered balanced for both batsmen and bowlers. However, this time there is a possibility of leaving a little grass on fresh pitches for the Asia Cup. Due to which fast bowlers can get a lot of help in the beginning. With Jasprit Bumrah, Team India can take off another specialist pacer. At the same time, the real test of the fitness and strategy of hot weather and humid players will be taken.

India’s possible playing XI

Abhishek Sharma, Shubman Gill, Tilak Verma, Suryakumar Yadav (captain), Jitesh Sharma (wicketkeeper), Hardik Pandya, Akshar Patel, Harshit Rana, Kuldeep Yadav, Jaspreet Bumrah and Varun Chakraborty.
