Fans express anger as India set to play Pakistan in WCL 2025

The India vs Pakistan match in WCL 2025 will take place in Birmingham on 20th July.

Indian Cricket Team legends, including Shikhar Dhawan, Yuvraj Singh and others, have come under massive scrutiny. This is because India and Pakistan are all set to lock horns with each other in the World Championship of Legends (WCL) 2025 on Sunday, July 20, in Birmingham. 

Things have not been great between India and Pakistan for the last few months. After the Pahalgam terror attack, the two nations got involved in a war-type situation, and it even saw the Indian Premier League (IPL) 2025 getting suspended for around a week due to the tensions. 

Following that, the Indian government banned social media accounts of almost every Pakistani player, and also Shikhar Dhawan and Shahid Afridi were involved in a heated argument on social media. Also, there were calls to cut all the cricketing ties with Pakistan. 

There were also some reports that claimed the BCCI would also boycott the Asia Cup 2025, as they don’t want to play against Pakistan. However, months after all this, India and Pakistan are now all set to clash in the second season of the WCL in 2025. 

Apart from India and Pakistan, England, the West Indies, South Africa, and Australian players are also featuring in this league. The Indian team will be captained by Yuvraj Singh and will include players such as Suresh Raina and Irfan Pathan.
