Team India faces a big blow in Asia Cup 2025 as a star all-rounder suffers a serious injury before the Pakistan clash
India defeated Oman by 21 runs in their last group match and advanced unbeaten into the Super 4 stage
During the Oman match, Axar Patel injured his head and neck while attempting a catch and was forced to leave the field
India’s fielding coach revealed Axar is stable but doubtful for the Pakistan match with less than 48 hours left for recovery
Axar’s injury adds to India’s concerns as the team may have to change their strategy for the high-voltage Super 4 game
If Axar is ruled out, Riyan Parag or Washington Sundar may replace him in the squad for the rest of Asia Cup 2025
