Member of Parliament (MP) and fiancée of cricketer Rinku Singh, Priya Saroj, shared a picture from her video call with the southpaw on social media following India’s triumph in the Asia Cup 2025. The Men in Blue defeated Pakistan in the summit clash on Sunday, September 28, at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.

Put in to bat, Pakistan were bundled out for 146 in 19.1 overs, with Kuldeep Yadav starring with figures of 4/30 from his four overs. Axar Patel, Varun Chakaravarthy, and Jasprit Bumrah chipped in with two wickets each.

In reply, Tilak Varma emerged as India’s hero, remaining unbeaten on 69 off 53 balls, while Rinku Singh sealed the contest in style by striking a boundary off the very first delivery he faced in the tournament. India wrapped up the chase with five wickets in hand and two balls to spare.

As India clinched the tournament, Priya Saroj shared a snap on Instagram from her video call with Rinku Singh. The picture also featured Kuldeep Yadav and Rinku’s sister Neha, joining in the celebratory moment after the final.
