The India vs Pakistan rivalry is set to continue when both teams clash at the Hong Kong Sixes. The arch-rivals have been placed in Pool C, with Kuwait being the other team. The last time both these teams clashed was during the Asia Cup, where India dominated Pakistan with a hat-trick of victories, including a decisive win in the final.
That win, however, was overshadowed by controversy after Asian Cricket Council (ACC) president Mohsin Naqvi, who also serves as Pakistan’s interior minister, left with the trophy following India’s refusal to accept it from him.
Following the Pahalgam attack, Indian players avoided handshakes with their Pakistani counterparts as a mark of protest during the Asia Cup. Fans now await to see whether that stance continues when the two teams meet again today, November 7, in Hong Kong.
