Every cricket fan is waiting for Asia Cup 2025, especially the explosive match between India and Pakistan, but recently some news came that made the fans wonder, is this great match in danger?
UAE Cricket Board COO Subhan Ahmed has now spoken clearly in this matter.
What is the whole matter?
For some time now, there has been some tension between India and Pakistan regarding cricket.
After the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, Jammu and Kashmir in April, in which 26 people were killed, the Indian champion team refused to play two matches against Pakistan in the World Championship of Legends (WCL).
This made the fans fear that the India-Pakistan match might be canceled in Asia Cup 2025 as well. But,
UAE Cricket Board COO Subhan Ahmed dispelled this fear.
He clearly said, “Although I cannot give a formal guarantee, there is no risk of Pakistan and India not playing.”
Meaning, there is nothing to worry about! Subhan also told that a big tournament like Asia Cup cannot be compared to a private tournament like WCL, where India refused to play against Pakistan in the league and semi-finals.

So, get ready, because the India-Pakistan match in Asia Cup 2025 is almost confirmed.
