Gautam Gambhir expressed solidarity with the victims of the Pahalgam terror attack and thanked the Indian Armed Forces for conducting Operation Sindoor earlier this year, after India defeated Pakistan by seven wickets in the IND vs PAK Asia Cup 2025 match in Dubai on September 14. Pakistan won the toss and chose to bat first and that decision made their captain, Salman Ali Agha, not backed by the players, with the Green Shirts managing just 127/9. Never did it look like Pakistan were in any control with the bat in hand with India's bowlers, the best of them being Kuldeep Yadav (3/18), being the best of all on the night. India then chased down 128 inside 15.5 overs without much difficulty on the back of Abhishek Sharma's quickfire 31 and Suryakumar Yadav's undefeated 47. Suryakumar Yadav Dedicates India's Victory Against Pakistan in Asia Cup 2025 to Indian Armed Forces, Also Expresses Solidarity With Victims of the Families of Pahalgam Terror Attack.
