Summary
The Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 points table may seem a bit confusing right now, but it shows how India and Bangladesh lead with 2 points each, with India ahead on Net Run Rate (NRR). Sri Lanka and Pakistan are behind, needing wins and strong performances to stay in Final contention.
What is the Super 4 in Asia Cup 2025?
If you’re new to this, here’s a quick breakdown:
- Asia Cup 2025 is being played in the T20 format in the UAE.
- The tournament starts with a Group Stage, divided into groups (Group A, Group B). Top 2 teams from each group go through to the Super Four stage.
- In Super Four, these 4 teams play each other once each in a round-robin. So each team has 3 matches in Super Four.
- The top 2 teams from Super Four based on points (then Net Run Rate if tied) reach the Final.
Current Standings: Asia Cup 2025 Super 4 Points Table
Here is how things currently stand (after two matches in Super Four):
| Position | Team | Matches Played | Won | Lost | Points | Net Run Rate (NRR) |
| 1 | India | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 | +0.689 |
| 2 | Bangladesh | 1 | 1 | 0 | 2 | +0.121 |
| 3 | Sri Lanka | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | −0.121 |
| 4 | Pakistan | 1 | 0 | 1 | 0 | −0.689 |
What’s happened so far
- Bangladesh beat Sri Lanka in the first Super Four match.
- India beat Pakistan by six wickets in Super Four match 2.
So both India and Bangladesh have started with a win, while Sri Lanka and Pakistan have each lost one Super Four match.
What Net Run Rate Means & Why It Matters
For experienced cricket fans or those wanting deeper understanding:
- Net Run Rate (NRR) is the tie-breaker when teams have the same number of points. It measures how well a team has performed in terms of scoring rate vs opponent, across matches. A high positive NRR means you won big / restricted opponents well. A big negative NRR means either you lost heavily or couldn’t chase or defend well.
- Small margins can make a big difference. Because India’s +0.689 is fairly strong, they have buffer. Bangladesh’s +0.121 is much tighter. Pakistan and Sri Lanka must not only win but win with good margins, especially if NRR comes into play.
Possible Scenarios: Who Could Make the Final
Here are some plausible paths depending on upcoming matches:
- India
- With two wins out of their remaining matches (against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka), they are almost certain to reach the Final. Even with one win, their strong NRR may help.
- With two wins out of their remaining matches (against Bangladesh and Sri Lanka), they are almost certain to reach the Final. Even with one win, their strong NRR may help.
- Bangladesh
- They have a shot at the Final if they win both or at least one match convincingly, especially vs India or Pakistan.
- They have a shot at the Final if they win both or at least one match convincingly, especially vs India or Pakistan.
- Sri Lanka & Pakistan
- Both have to win their remaining matches — Sri Lanka vs Pakistan and India; Pakistan vs Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
- Margin of wins will matter (big victories improve NRR).
- Both have to win their remaining matches — Sri Lanka vs Pakistan and India; Pakistan vs Sri Lanka and Bangladesh.
- Tiebreakers
- If two teams end up with 4 points each, NRR will decide top spot. If more than two tie, then head-to-head or NRR across entire Super Four stage will be considered.
- If two teams end up with 4 points each, NRR will decide top spot. If more than two tie, then head-to-head or NRR across entire Super Four stage will be considered.

FAQs
Q: How many points does a win in Super Four give?
A: A win gives 2 points, a loss gives 0, and for ties/no-result it’s usually 1 point.
Q: What happens if two teams are tied in points?
A: Net Run Rate (NRR) is used to break the tie. The team with the higher (more positive) NRR ranks above the other.
Q: Can a team with 1 win still make it to the Final?
A: Yes. If another team also has 1 win, then NRR could decide. Teams need to win by good margins.
Q: Who currently looks likely to reach the Final?
A: As of now, India looks very strong. Bangladesh is in good position. Sri Lanka and Pakistan need to win their remaining games and boost NRR.
Q: Is there any scenario where a team loses one match and still wins the tournament?
A: Yes. If a team loses one Super Four match but wins the other two, and if their NRR remains decent, they can still finish among the top two and play in the Final, and potentially win there.
Conclusion & What to Watch Next
The Asia Cup 2025 Super Four stage is turning into a nail-biter. Right now:
- India has the edge (win + strong NRR).
- Bangladesh also strong, but needs to be consistent.
- Sri Lanka and Pakistan are in must-win mode.
If I were you, I’d watch:
- How Pakistan vs Sri Lanka plays out (could tilt things heavily).
- The margin of victories in upcoming matches (these will affect NRR).
- India’s match vs Bangladesh — that could decide who enters the Final as the top team.
