India vs Pakistan is always the game to watch out for in any tournament, and it will be the same in the upcoming edition of the Asia Cup 2025. However, the player who is expected to draw the most attention will be Jasprit Bumrah. The Indian fast bowler is a champion in himself and is always the biggest obstacle for the opposition batters.

Bumrah has been part of just four T20I matches against Pakistan so far, but has conceded just 76 runs in that period. The pacer's stats in 14 overs are enough to prove his immense impact in this format against Pakistan with just a 5.43 economy rate. The tight bowling creates pressure on the batters, which becomes the reason for wickets at the other end.

The habit of taking wickets and his impact on big occasions:

Bumrah's record is not limited to just stopping runs; he has also taken a total of five wickets against Pakistan. The 31-year-old's bowling average is 15.20, which indicates that he not only bowls accurately but also takes important wickets. His three-wicket haul in the T20 World Cup 2024 last year was no less than an example.

In that match, India were defending a low score, but Bumrah changed the course of the game with his sharp bowling. He brought the match in India's grip by dismissing Pakistan's top batsmen. The pacer's yorker and change in pace kept the batsmen in check, and his role was decisive in that victory.

Bumrah's presence in the Asia Cup 2025 will put psychological pressure on Pakistan's batting. The Indian team management knows that he can take wickets in difficult moments, and he also has great experience. Pakistan's batsmen will likely be cautious against him, as he has already disrupted their game plan on numerous occasions. Fans' expectations will be attached to him, and his every move on the field can affect the result of the match. Bumrah's T20I return will be no less than a big weapon for India.
