The cricket world is in a state of excitement and agitation as the India-Pakistan battle in the 2025 Asia Cup, scheduled to be played on September 14, hangs in the balance. While cricket fans are drooling at the prospect of this high-octane match, the latest politico-security developments have been eroding the tournament. The Indian Board of Control for Cricket (BCCI) has yet to finalize its decision regarding India’s participation, and it becomes even more delicate in light of events of recent events.

Public Opinion and Political Scenario
The release of the Asia Cup fixtures by Asian Cricket Council (ACC) chairman and head of PCB Mohsin Naqvi sparked instant public fury on all social media sites. The outrage is attributed to the Pahalgam terror attack of April 22, which claimed the lives of 26 civilians. India responded with Operation Sindoor, heightening tensions between the two countries.

Following these events, Indian public opinion and celebrities by and large were against playing in a cricket against Pakistan. The matter has moved Cricket— now it is about national mood, security, and timing.

“BCCI is not under the ministry’s jurisdiction as of now, so it is up to them. But we will observe how they react to the public sentiment.”
