There is still anger among the Indians of the Pahalgam terror attack in April. For this reason, the demand to make India-Pakistan Asia Cup match to Boycott (India vs Pakistan Boycott) has gained momentum. The Boycott movement has reached the street of India. This clash of both the rivals is to begin at 8 pm tonight. But if it is canceled due to some reason at the last moment, then how much will be the loss? Whether the matches are being played in the UAE, BCCI/India is hosting. In such a situation, if the match is canceled, can the BCCI feel very strong? You will get the answer to this question here.

How much will BCCI suffer?

If the India-Pakistan match is canceled, then the first impact will be on the broadcasting deal. The viewership of the India-Pakistan match has been breaking a big record, but if the match did not happen in the Asia Cup 2025, then the broadcasting deal of about Rs 1500 crore will be left. According to an Asia Cup, the 2025 Asia Cup share is Rs 375 crore.

In fact, a BCCI officer had told in 2024 that broadcasting rights for the next four Asia Cup events have been sold in 170 million dollars. It is equal to about 1500 crores in Indian currency. There is no doubt that the BCCI has received such a hefty amount due to the India-Pakistan match. If the Indo-Pak match was not held in the Asia Cup 2025, then the broadcasters will ask the BCCI strict questions. If the situation is worse, the deal of crores of BCCI can also end in the middle.

Broadcaster also deficit due to BCCI

India-Pakistan match is seen by crores of people worldwide. More viewership means ‘Broadcaster’ collects a hefty amount for add slots. According to reports, the 10-second ed slot of India-Pakistan match is sold for 25-30 lakhs in big events like ACC and ICC. In such a situation, there will be a match, then which company would like to continue the deal.

For such a high-profile match, big companies are engaged in the line to become sponsors. By the way, Team India does not have the title sponsor for the Asia Cup, because after the online gaming bill, Dream 11 and BCCI deal was over. But different companies also sponsor Team India in different ways. If there is no India-Pak match, then apart from broadcaster, sponsors will also ask questions to the board.

India-Pakistan is a very big match, whose tickets are sold in a few minutes. But the cancellation of the Asia Cup 2025 match will also affect the revenue sales revenue. Apart from this, the cancellation of the match at the last moment will also tarnish the image of BCCI.

India and Pakistan can come face to face three times in this match. It is possible to come face to face in the group stage, then the super-4 phase and finally in the final. 3 high-profile match BCCI can make a strong chapat.

Asia Cup 2025 Points Table: India is number one in Group ‘A’, ‘B’ on top? See the condition of the points table before IND vs Pak match

The Asia Cup 2025 will start from September 9, India will face Pakistan on 14 September in the second match after the first match. This match is being discussed the most. Most of the fans want to boycott this match, former cricketer Harbhajan Singh has also spoken that it is not right to have this match after the Pahalgam attack. However, the thinking of this match of BCCI seems something else.

The BCCI wants India vs Pakistan match in the Asia Cup, because the Indian board will also be harmed due to this. Dainik Bhaskar has given this information by quoting two top BCCI officials. According to the report, the Indian board also wants India and Pakistan to have a match in the Asia Cup.

Let us know that after the Pahalgam attack, India Legends also refused to play matches with Pakistan in WCL. The team thought it right to be out of the tournament but maintained the decision not to play with Pakistan in the semi -finals.

Board does not want to give free points to Pakistan

Quoting BCCI officials, Bhaskar said in his report that the team does not want to give 2 points of free to Pakistan. Officials said that Team India can only boycott Pakistan in the Asia Cup, but this will provide 2 points of free to the Pakistan team. Pakistan can reach the finals thanks to these points. Why should we give free points to Pakistan.

India’s dominance in ACC will be weak

The second reason in the report was told that if the Indian team does not play with Pakistan, then the tournament will be flopped. This will also affect the earnings. This will reduce India’s dominance in the Asian Cricket Council and Pakistan can make other countries against India.

BCCI will also be weak in ICC politics

In the third reason, it has been told that this will also weaken the BCCI in ICC politics. If voting is done on any issue, then most of the countries of Asia support the BCCI and it includes Pakistan. India and Pakistan continued to vote in one place for hosting the ICC tournament. If India boycott the match with Pakistan in the Asia Cup, then the position of BCCI in ICC can also weaken.

Broadcaster will suffer a big loss due to cancellation of India-Pakistan match

The BCCI official said in the report that in 2024 the broadcast rights of the next 4 Asia Cup have been sold for about Rs 1500 crore. They have received such a huge price only due to the India vs Pakistan match. Advertising slots for this match are sold for 10 seconds for 10 seconds, while this amount for other matches in India is halved. If India Pakistan match is canceled, then the broadcaster will have to suffer a big loss. This will reduce the reliability of BCCI in the eyes of broadcasters.

So will India-Pakistan match be now in any case?

This is not the case, of course the BCCI is looking at the disadvantage of doing so, but the final decision on this match will also be of the government. The Sports Ministry official told Bhaskar that no instructions have been received about it yet. However, Bihar election campaign will intensify by that time and the pressure on the government will increase not to allow India’s match with Pakistan. It is also likely that India will boycott the match with Pakistan at the last moment.
