The upcoming India vs Pakistan match at the ACC Asia Cup 2025 has resulted in major fan backlash, with many calling for a boycott. 

After the terrorist attack in Pahalgam earlier this year in April, as well as the following military conflict, several Indian fans had expressed the desire to further sever cricketing ties with Pakistan.

The arch rivals haven't been engaging in bilateral series for many years now, and only face each other during ICC or other other multi-nation tournaments like the Asia Cup. However, after the terror attack, many had called for a complete boycott. 

While the IND vs PAK match is officially still on schedule, the hashtag #boycottindvspak is trending on X as of this writing.

Our soldiers’ families sacrifice everything - husbands, sons, fathers, brothers. 💔

Can’t we make one small sacrifice… to resist the ‘entertainment’ of India vs Pakistan cricket?

Some celebrations come drenched in blood. Remember that.🇮🇳#BoycottAsiaCup #BoycottINDVsPAK pic.twitter.com/FMr876qedY

🇮🇳❤️🇮🇳 Boycott 🇮🇳IND vs PAK

As an Indian who bleeds tricolor, my heart beats for our brave soldiers on the border, not for cricket balls on the field. In times of tension, let's stand with the Army that protects us—skip the match, show real patriotism! Jai Hind! #BoycottIndVsPak… pic.twitter.com/SDCKctNeK4

How can BCCI even think of this match? No game is greater than the nation, no match is greater than the innocent lives we lost in the Pahalgam attack. I am boycotting the India ~ Pakistan match, and every Indian should too. #BoycottIndVsPak #NationFirst pic.twitter.com/ZiIVoAEBid
