In Asia Cup 2025, the captains of 2 teams are Indians, while the captains of 3 teams are Pakistanis. This is a new twist in the tournament. 5 cricketers born in India and Pakistan will be seen captaining 5 teams in the tournament this time.

T20 Asia Cup 2025 is going to start from next week. A total of 8 teams are participating in this Asian tournament to be played in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, UAE from 9 September, but you will be surprised to know that the captains of 8 teams are players from only 5 countries. Yes, this is true. Two Indian and 3 Pakistani players will be seen captaining 5 teams in the Asia Cup.

In fact, the captain of the Indian team is Suryakumar Yadav, while the captain of the Pakistan team is Salman Ali Agha, but two more cricketers born in Pakistan, while another cricketer born in India will be seen captaining 3 other teams. One of them is Jatinder Singh, the captain of the Oman team, who was born in Ludhiana, Punjab, but now plays for Oman and is also the captain of the Oman team in the Asia Cup.

On the other hand, if we talk about Pakistan, the captain of the United Arab Emirates (UAE) team is Muhammad Wasim. Muhammad Wasim was born in Mian Channu of Khanewal district of Pakistan. He has been living in the UAE for a long time now and now he also has UAE citizenship. Apart from him, the captain of the Hong Kong team is Yasin Murtaza, who was born in Sialkot, Punjab province of Pakistan and has now settled in Hong Kong.

In this way, 2 people from India and 3 people from Pakistan will be seen captaining 5 teams in the Asia Cup this time. A very amazing coincidence is happening this time. Apart from them, the captain of the Afghanistan team is Rashid Khan, who was born in Afghanistan, while the captain of the Bangladesh team is Liton Das, who was born in Bangladesh. At the same time, the captain of the Sri Lankan team is Charit Aslanka, who was born in Sri Lanka.
