The upcoming India vs Pakistan Asia Cup 2025 match in Dubai has stirred controversy, not only due to political tensions but also because of IPL team Punjab Kings’ social media strategy.

Separately, the Supreme Court dismissed a petition demanding cancellation of the match, despite arguments that playing Pakistan soon after terror attacks dishonors the sacrifices of Indian soldiers.
