Men’s Asia Cup 2025: Three Pakistan Vs India Matches Expected

Sep 9, 2025 - 01:00

The long awaited Asia cup 2025 schedule has been finally announced with both enthusiasm and controversy. The event will be in the United Arab Emirates between September 9 and 28 as confirmed by Asian Cricket Council (ACC) and the president of PCB Mohsin Naqvi through social media on Saturday.

“I am happy to inform you of the dates of the ACC Men Asia Cup 2025. We are anticipating a showcase of a fascinating game of cricket,” Naqvi wrote. The entire Asia Cup 2025 program will be progressively rolled out and matches can be anticipated to be hosted in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.

Though India is the host country on record, the BCCI has consented to host the tournament in a neutral location in the UAE as a result of diplomatic limitations. The ruling has evoked debates on the internet particularly following the probable incorporation of India and Pakistan in the same category.

The T20I format will see the fight of the eight teams which include India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh, Afghanistan, UAE, Oman, and Hong Kong. In the event that India and Pakistan make it, they may see up to three high tension matches, during the group stage, Super 4s and perhaps the final.

Immediately the news of the Asia Cup 2025 schedule was announced, the internet caught fire. On one hand, people who followed cricket cheered a new India-pakistan clash but on the other hand, BCCI was criticized as hypocritical by people citing its hard-line approach to bilateral relations with Pakistan. Netizens overwhelmed the social media with memes, satire, and incisive posts, turning the announcement into a trending topic.

The response of netizens ranged over the emotional spectrum with funny India vs Pakistan memes and grave concerns about the merging of politics and sports.
