The scene is ready for another high-tension confrontation while India will face Pakistan tomorrow, Sunday, September 14, in the Asian Cup 2025. Each time these two nations meet, the rivalry goes beyond the cricket and the memories of the past flash points often breathe. One of these incidents took place the last time Pakistan toured India for a bilateral series in 2012. When the International T20 was opened at Mr. Chinnaswamy stadium in Bengaluru, the Indian stimulator Ishant Sharma and the carrier of the grove holder of Pakistan Kamran Akmal were involved in a confrontation of Priery.
The flash point came when Akmal accused the is to have hindered his race during a simple. A few moments later, after beating it with a delivery, Ishant made fun of the Pakistani striker. The provocation did not correspond to Akmal and the heated words followed until other Indian players and referees intervene. “It is again the aggression that has almost become uncontrollable,” admitted Akmal later, stressing how much Indian-Pakistani meetings can become tense. This 2012 series remains the last bilateral meeting between the Deux-Rivaux de l’Arc. Since then, they have only clashed in multi-to-noble events, the Asian Cup and the World Cups serving as battlefields. The two teams started their ASIA CUP 2025 campaigns in style. Pakistan won a 93 -point victory over Oman, with Mohammad Haris breaking 66 before their spinners brought together Oman for only 67 in 16.4 Overs. India was just as dominant against water, hunting only 58, the first Indian order, led by Abhishek Sharma and Shubman Gill, did a light job of the target, reaching 60 for 1 of only 4.3 Overs. Kuldeep Yadav (4/7) and Shivam Dube (3/4) had previously dismantled the range of water strikers.
