Nothing compares to the energy of an India-Pak contest
The Statesman Siliguri
|June 28, 2025
The last bilateral series took place in 2012-13, when Pakistan toured India for a short limited-overs engagement
The intense anticipation and electrifying energy surrounding any India-Pakistan cricket clash remain unmatched, and India skipper Rohit Sharma recently offered a glimpse of the atmosphere in the buildup to the ICC T20 World Cup 2024 match and India's thrilling six-run win in what turned out to be a tight contest.
"Before the India vs Pakistan match, we were told there was a threat - something was going on. So, two days before the game, we weren't allowed to step out of the hotel. The atmosphere started building from there. We were ordering food in, and the hotel was so packed you could barely walk. Fans, media - everyone was there. That's when you realise this isn't just another match - something special is about to happen.
