Cricket fans in India, the thrill is real. Asia Cup 2025 is here! Contested in the UAE from September 9 to 28, this year’s edition will be nothing short of adrenaline-fueled T20 madness involving eight teams playing to figure out who is the best on the continent. With eight cricketing powerhouses clashing in the UAE, each match promises heart-stopping moments and unexpected twists. But here is the million-dollar question – how do you avoid missing a single six, wicket, or close finish? Never fear, we have everything you need to know about telecast channels and live-streaming options in India.

 

Sony Sports: Your Go-To TV Destination

 

First things first, if you’re a traditionalist who’s happiest with a remote in your hand and a big-screen experience, then Sony Sports has got you set. The Asia Cup 2025 will be broadcast on multiple Sony Sports channels in India across a range of languages. The main feed will run on Sony Sports 1, while those who love Hindi commentary will have Sony Sports 3. If you prefer commentary in Tamil and Telugu, Sony Sports 4 will stream the matches! If you wanted a channel more devoted to cricket, you’ll have Sony Sports 5. Nearly all games, except the one-day fixtures, are set to begin at 8:00 PM IST. That’s great news for evening cricket fans!

For those who are unable to afford the luxury of sitting in front of the television, Sony Liv has provided the Asia Cup right there in the palm of your hand. So, you can watch all the action live if you are on the bus, at work, or even lying back on the couch for a break in whatever context. Of course, to watch the Asia Cup, you will need a subscription, but Sony Liv has three plans to offer: Mobile only (₹699 a year), LIV Premium (1,499 a year), or a monthly LIV Premium plan (₹399/month).

Team India’s Group Stage Games: Dates You Can’t Miss

 

Now, let’s talk schedule—because knowing when Team India plays is crucial. Placed in Group A, India has three group-stage matches lined up:

 

  • September 10: India vs UAE, Dubai International Cricket Stadium at 8:00 PM IST
  • September 14: India vs Pakistan, Dubai International Cricket Stadium at 8:00 PM IST
  • September 19: India vs Oman, Sheikh Zayed Stadium, Abu Dhabi at 8:00 PM IST

 

India is facing Pakistan in a highly anticipated encounter, and in a match like this, you’ll feel every glitch in your stream, and every missed moment is an individual tragedy. After all, you’ve arranged it so you’re not going to miss a single run or moment of drama, whether that’s through a Sony Sports channel or a Sony Liv subscription. And if India is to go deep into the tournament, the Super Fours and the final will represent an even more tense affair.
