The Indian Sports Ministry has sanctioned Team India’s participation in the Asia Cup 2025 match against Pakistan. The match is scheduled for September 14 at Dubai International Cricket Stadium. The ministry’s decision follows the implementation of a new policy regulating India’s international sporting activities, particularly those involving Pakistan. The ministry stated that India’s approach to sporting events with Pakistan reflects its overarching policy toward the neighboring country. India will not engage in bilateral sports events with Pakistan, whether in India or Pakistan. Despite this, India is permitted to compete in multilateral events like the Asia Cup. The directive has been implemented immediately, ending any speculation about India’s involvement in the tournament.
