Asia Cup 2025 is not far away even as uncertainty looms over the high-voltage India vs Pakistan encounter. India did not play Pakistan in the World Championship of Legends recently in the group stage as well as the semifinal. Boycotting the semifinal meant India were knocked out without even playing and Pakistan made it to the final. Will India boycott their clash against Pakistan or will it go ahead on September 18 as planned? Only time will tell.
While the India vs Pakistan encounter's fate lies in future, we can be certain about what has happened in the past when the two teams have met in the Asia Cup. So, let us have a look.
