India and Pakistan have never faced each other in an Asia Cup final until the 2025 edition. In the 16 editions of the Asia Cup from 1984 to 2023, the two teams met frequently in group stages and Super Four rounds, but never in the final due to one of them typically being eliminated before the title match. Sri Lanka has often been the common opponent in finals for both teams. The 2025 Asia Cup final on September 28 in Dubai marks the first-ever India-Pakistan final in the tournament’s history.
