Indo-Pak cricket rivalry 2

Daily FT

September 19, 2025

ENCOUNTERS between India and Pakistan are generally considered as the biggest rivalry in cricket.

In the past, some of the games between the two neighbours have produced exciting, nail-biting thrillers. Often, tickets for the matches featuring both teams get sold out quickly while millions of fans remain glued in front of television.

Ironically, the Asia Cup contest last Sunday between the two traditional rivals did not resemble the typical glamour and aura associated with Indo-Pak cricket games. Hundreds of tickets remained unsold, and there were a number of empty seats at the ground. The match itself was a boring affair with India cruising to a comfortable victory. Most of the cricket matches between India and Pakistan in the recent past have been one-sided games with India beating their opponent convincingly, failing to live up to the pre-match hype.
