Ranking teams after Asia Cup 2025

The Asia Cup 2025 has wrapped up after three weeks of high-intensity action, drama, and memorable moments across the cricketing spectrum. Eight teams fought for continental supremacy, but in the end, India once again proved their dominance by clinching their ninth Asia Cup title, defeating arch-rivals Pakistan in the grand finale on Sunday, September 28, 2025. While some teams lived up to expectations, others fell short, leaving fans disappointed. From seasoned powerhouses to rising challengers, every side had something to show, even if the results did not entirely favour them. Here, in CricTracker, let us rank all the teams after their campaigns in Asia Cup 2025. Ranking teams after Asia Cup 2025 Bangladesh (7/10) Bangladesh Team.

The Tigers looked determined and disciplined, competing closely with top-tier sides. Despite their best efforts, they once again failed to reach the final, leaving their dream of a maiden multinational trophy unfulfilled. With experienced batters anchoring the innings and their bowlers providing crucial breakthroughs, Bangladesh were a tough opponent throughout the tournament. Their campaign showed promise, but they still lack the finishing edge needed to challenge for silverware. Sri Lanka (6/10) Sri Lanka Cricket Team.

After a decent run in the group stage, they were completely outclassed in the latter phase, losing all three matches and exiting without much fight. They had inconsistent batting and ineffective bowling combinations cost them crucial momentum. Although they had flashes of brilliance, Sri Lanka’s inability to sustain pressure against stronger teams showed that they need more depth and stability to challenge for the top prize in future editions. Afghanistan (5/10) Afghanistan Team. (Photo Source: Surjeet Yadav/MB Media/Getty Images) Afghanistan, often seen as the dark horses of Asian cricket, had a mixed tournament. They started brightly with a victory over Hong Kong but faltered in their next two games, which saw them bow out at the group stage. Their batting showed flashes of brilliance, but their bowling, usually their strongest suit, lacked consistency this time around. Afghanistan had the potential to trouble bigger teams in the Super Four, but failing to qualify was a setback. Nevertheless, their campaign featured positive signs, particularly with their younger batters stepping up. United Arab Emirates (5/10) United Arab Emirates Team.

Against giants like India and Pakistan, they showed some improvement across departments, though the gap in class was evident. What stood out was their ability to compete in short bursts, pushing opponents with spirited performances. The UAE will take valuable lessons from this Asia Cup as they continue to build toward future tournaments, where consistency will be their biggest focus. Oman (4.5/10) Oman.

Their close contest against India was one of the most surprising moments of the group stage, as they nearly pulled off an upset. However, their lack of depth and experience showed in crunch situations. Still, Oman displayed enough promise to suggest they can challenge strongly in the T20 World Cup Qualifiers, where their fighting spirit will be vital. Hong Kong (3/10) Hong Kong.

However, there were positives to take home, their bowlers delivered disciplined spells, and some experienced batters played attacking cameos that entertained fans. Though finishing bottom of the rankings, Hong Kong will look at this tournament as a valuable learning experience, which can only aid their growth at the associate level. Pakistan (7.5/10) Pakistan Cricket Team. (Photo Source: Francois Nel/Getty Images) Pakistan came agonisingly close to lifting their third Asia Cup trophy but faltered at the final hurdle yet again. Despite showing resilience throughout the tournament, their biggest obstacle remained India, against whom they suffered all three of their defeats, including the final. Led by a mixture of experienced campaigners and young talents, Pakistan delivered fighting performances, with several matches going down to the wire. However, their inability to finish strong against their fiercest rivals cost them dearly. They finished as runners-up with consistent performances against other sides which underlines their competitiveness. India (9.5/10) Indian Team. (Photo source: BCCI) India showcased why they remain the most successful Asian team in history by winning all their matches in the tournament. The Men in Blue looked invincible from start to finish, combining solid batting, and disciplined bowling. Abhishek Sharma was one of the standout performers in the batting department, consistently giving India strong starts, while Kuldeep Yadav proved decisive with his spin, dismantling opposition line-ups with ease. The captaincy of Suryakumar Yadav deserves special mention as well, his calm decisions and aggressive field placements ensured India never lost control of any game.
