The ‘Topic’ of the Asia Cup 2025 in the cricket world remains in the discussion. For the first time, 8 teams will be participating in this tournament, but even after the release of the schedule, there is a demand for cancellation of it. On the other hand, the Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) is being severely criticized for the India vs Pakistan match. Amid this ruckus, former Indian captain Sourav Ganguly has given a big statement on this upcoming tournament and India vs Pakistan match.
After the Pahalgam terror attack, there has been a lot of anger among the Indian people towards Pakistan. Therefore, there is a demand to boycott the match against Pakistan on social media too. Amidst all this, Sourav Ganguly says that no situation should have any effect on the game.
Talking to the news agency ANI, Sourav Ganguly said, “I do not have problems with this, the game should continue. The Pahalgam attack was a tragic incident which should not have happened. Terrorism should be eradicated. India should take strict action against terrorism, the game should continue there.”
Sourav Ganguly’s statement comes at a time when the demand for cancellation of the entire Asia Cup is gaining momentum, not only India vs Pakistan. In this case, he caught fire when the statement of Danish Kaneria came to light. He set the example of the World Championship of Legends, in which several Indian players, including Shikhar Dhawan and Harbhajan Singh, refused to play against Pakistan, which is why WCL organizers had to cancel the Indo-Pak match. Now a few days later, Danish Kaneria has taunted India’s decision to play with Pakistan in the Asia Cup.
In view of the preparations for the 2026 T20 World Cup, the Asia Cup 2025 will also be played in T20 format. The tournament will be played till September 9-28, in which a total of 8 teams including India and Pakistan will be participating.
