Team India kicked off their Asia Cup 2025 run with a record-breaking win against the United Arab Emirates (IND vs UAE) on Wednesday (September 10, 2025) evening. UAE scored only 57 runs in the first innings of the match, the lowest ever T20I total against Team India in the history of cricket. India won the match by 9 wickets and 93 balls to spare. If we count India's T20I wins by the remaining number of deliveries, then the victory against UAE, as of now, is the best. Before the match against the United Arab Emirates, a win against Scotland in 2021 was the biggest ever T20I match win for India in terms of number of balls to spare.
