In the Asia Cup 2025, the match will be played between India and Pakistan on 14 September. This match is being criticized on social media. Many people believe that this should not happen because there was a terrorist attack in Pahalgam shortly before. The wires of this attack were connected to Pakistan. After this, the Indian air service attacked Pakistan, which he named Operation Sindoor. This is the reason that many Indian fans believe that Team India should not play a match against Pakistan. However, there are also reports quoting media reports that this match cannot be canceled.
The first reason for not canceling India-Pak match!
According to NDTV, a source said that ACC i.e. Asian Cricket Council says that it is not a series between two teams but a multi-hold tournament. If India retreats from this match, Pakistan will get a walkover, which will not be the right result. This match cannot be canceled because the Asia Cup hosters the Asian Cup but the Asian Cricket Council.
Second reason for not canceling Indo-Pak match!
At present, the head of the ACC is Mohsin Naqvi, the Chief of the Pakistan Cricket Board. The broadcast rights of this tournament have been received by Sony Network, which is priced at US $ 17 million for 8 years. That means about 1475 crores. Many fans will watch the India-Pakistan match on TV and this will greatly benefit Sony Network. If the match is canceled, it will also have a lot of impact in broadcaster and revenue. Not only this, all 24 ACC members can also suffer a lot of damage.
Recently, the match between India and Pakistan Champions of the World Championship of Legends was canceled. The players of India Champions refused to play the match against Pakistan, after which it was not competed. Because of this, the organizers had to suffer a lot of loss.
