It's the semi-final of the ongoing Asia Cup Rising Stars 2025 between India-A and Bangladesh-A (IND-A vs BAN-A). Eyes will be on emerging Indian stars like Vaibhav Suryavanshi, the second-highest run-scorer in the tournament with 201 runs, and Naman Dhir. Both of the batters have been in form. Apart from these two batters, the rest of the India-A team is yet to perform as a unit. The semi-final against the Bangladesh-A team can be very tough if the batters of the emerging setup of the Men in Blue misfire today at West End Park International Cricket Stadium in Doha, Qatar. 

If we talk about the bowling part of the India A team, then it performed more unitedly than the batting department. Gurjapneet Singh is the top wicket-taker currently. Meanwhile, Harsh Dubey and Suyash Sharma have also made contributions. On paper, India-A is ahead of the Bangladesh-A team, though it will be very early to predict the result of the semi-final. Their batting power mostly relied on Habibur Rahman Sohan and captain Akbar Ali. Indian bowlers must try to take their wickets as early as possible. 

Toss Update:
