Gautam Gambhir (Screengrab)Team India head coach Gautam Gambhir could barely contain himself. In the closing moments of the Asia Cup 2025 final between India and Pakistan, the former India opener went wild as Tilak Varma launched Haris Rauf for a towering six in the final over.The blow all but sealed India’s victory, and Gambhir’s table-thumping celebration became as much a part of the highlight reel as the shot itself.It was the 19.2 over, India needing just eight runs from five deliveries.Rauf banged one in short, but Tilak was ready. But once Varun Chakravarthy and Kuldeep Yadav got into the act, wickets tumbled. Kuldeep’s 4/30, including a decisive triple-strike in the 17th over, broke the back of Pakistan’s innings, restricting them to 146 all out.India’s five-wicket win handed them a record ninth Asia Cup title. Yet, beyond the statistics, what fans will remember is Gambhir’s unfiltered joy.
