Asia Cup 2025: Shreyas Iyer’s team boycott India vs Pakistan clash with savage act

The Indian Premier League Franchise, Punjab Kings, has come up with a unique post on social media that immediately caught the attention of many, as they silently waged a social media war against the India vs Pakistan match in the Asia Cup 2025.

An immense fiasco has been built around the India vs Pakistan match ahead of the Asia Cup 2025, and a huge blow has been sustained by the cricketing relations between the two nations, especially after the strained political scenario between the two as a aftermath of the heinous crime in the Pahalgam valley.

    India and Pakistan being in a state of war, their disagreement to feature in matches in each other's countries, and the opinions dividing fans have all contributed to the high-scale business achieved from the contest.

    As India prepares to take on arch-rivals Pakistan this Sunday, several opinions have been made on the highly anticipated contest. Probably, some have said that Suryakumar's side should not be part of the contest, while some have cited this as just a game.

    Amid all this chatter, the Indian Premier League (IPL) franchise Punjab Kings came up with a unique idea to boycott the fixture. Just a few days ahead of the contest, they have published a picture of the fixture with the graphic keeping the opponent's spot vacant.

    Plea was made to the Supreme Court of India for the cancellation of the Asia Cup match

    Earlier, a plea on the cancellation of the match was made to the Supreme Court of India; however, the judges refused to list it as an urgent matter.

    "Cricket between nations is meant to show harmony and friendship. But after the Phalagam terror attack and Operation Sindoor, when our people died and our soldiers risked everything, playing with Pakistan sent the opposite message that while our soldiers sacrificed their lives, we are celebrating sports with the same country sheltering terrorists (sic)," the plea submitted.

    The petitioners added, "It can also hurt the sentiments of the families of the victims who lost their lives in the hand of the Pakistani terrorist. The dignity of the nation and the security of citizens come before entertainment."

    The plea said a cricket match between the two countries was "detrimental to the national interests" and morale of the armed forces and the nation as a whole.
