The match between India and Pakistan was scheduled to take place today in the semifinals of the World Championship of Legends (WCL-2025). But the match was canceled after Indian players Yuvraj Singh, Harbhajan Singh and Shikhar Dhawan refused to play against Pakistan.
After the cancellation of the match, Pakistan got a chance in the final without playing the semi-final match with India. Pakistan directly entered the finals because they are at the top of the points table.
A member of the Indian champions team has said that he has no regrets about the decision not to play against Pakistan saying that there is nothing above the country. Also, he has made it clear that even if Pakistan is the opponent in the final, his decision will be the same.
The ongoing tension between India and Pakistan started with the terrorist attack in Pahalgam of Jammu and Kashmir. In the Pahalgam attack, five terrorists shot and killed 26 Hindu tourists after asking them their religion, removing their clothes and checking whether they were Hindus. In which there was a local Muslim and a Christian tourist.
Then the Indian government attacked the terrorist areas of Pakistan through Operation Sindoor. Since then, there has been a dispute between India and Pakistan in every forum.
However, in international cricket, both teams currently have matches scheduled for the Asia Cup on September 14 and the Women's World Cup on October 6. But it has not been decided whether India will play/not play this match.
But before the Asia Cup, India has refused to play against Pakistan in the semi-finals of WCL-2025. This is the reason why Pakistan reached the finals without playing the semi-finals.
Talking to India Times, a member of the Indian team said, "Well, our refusal closed the way to the final and Pakistan reached it." But we have no regrets about taking this decision. Because no game can be above the country.'
