Asia Cup 2025 Match 10: PAK vs UAE head-to-head, stadium stats, predicted playing XIs & points table

Pakistan will face off against the United Arab Emirates (UAE) in Match No. 10 of the current Asia Cup 2025 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on Wednesday, 17 September. This match is a de facto knockout, as the winner will guarantee themselves a place in the Super Four.

Pakistan is coming off a tough seven-wicket loss to arch-rival India. With one win from their two matches, the Men in Green must win here to keep their campaign alive. Although they hold the advantage in net run rate from their comfortable win over Oman, losing another match could lead to their tournament exit. The UAE  on the other hand, are coming into this match with their heads held high after their victory against Oman. A win against Pakistan not only sends the Men in Green out of the tournament, but it will also help UAE make history by qualifying for the Super Four stage of the Asia Cup for the first time ever.
