Asia Cup 2025 set to be cancelled:
India have also not visited Pakistan since 2008. Earlier this year, India played all of their Champions Trophy games in the UAE even though Pakistan had the hosting rights. Since the suspension of the bilateral cricketing ties, India and Pakistan have played against each other only in Asia Cups and ICC tournaments.
