As of September 26th, 2025, India's fielding performance has been a significant concern during the ongoing tournament. The team has dropped a total of 10 catches, including a particularly troubling incident where they missed 5 catches in a single match against Bangladesh.
Varun Chakravarthy, a mystery spinner on the Indian team, has admitted that the squad needs to start taking all chances if they want to succeed.

The team's ability to hold onto catches could prove crucial in determining the outcome of the high-stakes match. As Chakravarthy stated, the players cannot afford to let any opportunities slip through their fingers if they hope to emerge victorious.
