The difficulties of the Pakistan cricket team have increased in the Asia Cup 2025. After suffering a crushing defeat from India, now the team's entry into the Super-4 is now in danger. Not only this, the no-handshake controversy has further fueled this issue.
Demand to remove match referee Andy Pycroft
Actually, during the India-Pak match (IND vs PAK Asia Cup Match), captain Suryakumar Yadav did not shake hands with the Pakistani players during the toss and even after the match. Surya was supported by the entire team.
Let us tell you that after the tension on the border and the Pahalgam terrorist attack, Indian players distanced themselves from Pakistan (Pakistan National Cricket Team). PCB expressed displeasure over this and has complained to ICC and ACC, calling it against the 'Spirit of Cricket'.
They have also demanded the removal of match referee Andy Pycroft. The Pakistan Cricket Board has threatened that if the ICC does not remove match referee Andy from the tournament, then they will boycott the tournament.
If Pakistan boycotts the Asia Cup match?
If Pakistan refuses to take the field against the UAE (PAK Vs UAE), then the match will go in favor of Muhammad Wasim's team. After this result, Pakistan will be left with only two points from the win against Oman, which will not be enough to reach the Super 4 stage.
UAE defeated Oman by 42 runs, and thus, with Pakistan boycotting the match, the team will get four points and will join India in the Super 4.
Apart from this, if the UAE vs Pak (UAE vs PAK Match Boycott threat) match is washed out due to rain, then Pakistan will move ahead due to better net run rate.
Big test on the way to Super-4
In Group-A of the Asia Cup 2025 (Asia Cup 2025 Pakistan), Pakistan is currently second in the points table and has only 2 points in its account. India has already confirmed its place in the Super-4. Now the Pakistan vs UAE match to be held in Dubai on 17 September will be a do or die match for both teams.
The UAE has a big chance
UAE captain Muhammad Wasim has a chance to create a big history. After defeating Oman by 42 runs, the UAE team's confidence has increased, and they would like to make the biggest upset of the tournament by defeating Pakistan.
On the other hand, Pakistan will have to win this match at all costs. After the defeat to India, the team's confidence has wavered, and captain Salman Ali Agha will have to get the best performance out of the players.
