The upcoming India vs. Pakistan match in the Asia Cup 2025 has been overshadowed by a new controversy. During a practice session at the ICC Academy in Dubai, Pakistani players allegedly chanted the slogan ‘6-0, 6-0.’ This is perceived as a provocative act, with the chant being linked to claims of the Pakistani Air Force shooting down six Indian fighter jets. The match at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on September 21st comes after India’s victory in the group stage. The tension between the teams has been palpable since the group stage match, with disputes over handshakes adding to the animosity. The reported actions of the Pakistani players have heightened the pre-match atmosphere.
