NEW DELHI: In a strikingly worded message early Monday, Prime Minister Narendra Modi hailed Team India ’s Asia Cup triumph over Pakistan , just minutes after result of finals, invoking “Operation Sindoor” to frame the win as a moment of national pride.
“OperationSindoor on the games field. Outcome is the same – India wins! Congrats to our cricketers,” the Prime Minister posted on X.
Led by Suryakumar Yadav , India clinched the high-voltage final by five wickets — their third Asia Cup title win against Pakistan. The game had the nation on edge, with millions glued to their screens as every ball became a flashpoint of rivalry.
This showdown unfolded against a backdrop of heated debate over whether India should even take the field against Pakistan following the April 22 Pahalgam terror attack in Jammu and Kashmir, which left the country outraged.
