As India prepares to face Pakistan in the Asia Cup 2025, the Indian team is under scrutiny regarding its participation. The team’s fielding coach has clarified that they are acting in accordance with the BCCI and government instructions. This comes amid strong reactions from fans and the tensions following the Pahalgam attack. Head coach Gautam Gambhir had previously advocated for a halt to sporting engagements with Pakistan until stability is restored. Ahead of the match, Gambhir has delivered a clear message to the team: to concentrate on cricket and not let external matters divert their attention. The India vs. Pakistan match is slated for September 14 in Dubai.
