India A faced a humiliating defeat at the hands of Bangladesh A in the first semi-final of the Asia Cup Rising Stars 2025 on Friday, November 21.
India A's baffling tactic not to use the explosive 14-year-old opening batsman Vaibhav Suryavanshi in the Super Over cost them big time, and they got bundled out for 0 at the West End Park International Cricket Stadium in Doha.
In the first semi-final of the Asia Cup Rising Stars 2025, the Men in Blue opted to bowl first and had a poor time in the first innings.
Barring Harsh Dubey and Suyash Sharma, the Indian bowlers were taken to cleaners by the Bangladesh A batters, who piled up a massive score of 194/6.
Chasing the target, Vaibhav Suryavanshi and Priyansh Arya provided the team with a strong start, but the middle order batters failed, and in the end, the Men In Blue needed three runs off the last ball to take the game into the Super Over, which they did thanks to Bangladesh A's horrible blunder.
Notably, Harsh Dubey hit the ball towards long-on, and alongside Nehal Wadhera reluctantly went for a double, and the Bangladesh keeper lost his sense and lobbed the ball at the stumps with the underarm from close range, missed, and there was no backing up, which led India to take 3.

Jitesh Sharma got bowled by Ripon on the first ball, and after his dismissal, Ashutosh Sharma was sent to bat instead of Vaibhav, and he too got dismissed for a duck. During the run-chase, Bangladesh lost a wicket, but a wide from Suyash Sharma sealed the deal.

— ICC Asia Cricket (@ICCAsiaCricket) November 21, 2025Good game of cricket, good learning for us - Jitesh Sharma
Jitesh Sharma was a disappointed man after the defeat, and he took all the blame on himself for the horrible loss against Bangladesh A. He stated:
"Good game of cricket, good learning for us, I will take all responsibility, as a senior I should finish the game. It's about the learning, not the losing.
"You never know, these guys may win World Cup for India some day. In terms of talent they're touching the sky. It's all about learning and experience. My wicket was the turning point. I know how to handle these situations. They bowled really well. Whoever bowled the 19th over, credit to him."
All 20 overs we were in control, don't blame anyone - Jitesh Sharma
Jitesh Sharma also revealed why Ashutosh Sharma and Ramandeep Singh were chosen to bat in the Super Over and not Vaibhav Suryavanshi. He stated:
"All 20 overs we were in control, don't blame anyone. It's a good game, that's it. They are masters of powerplay (Vaibhav and Priyansh) but in the death me, Ashu and Raman are who can hit at will.
"So it was team decision and my decision (lineup for Super Over). That leftie guy who played the innings, incredible to play such shots, they also have incredible future."
