The highly anticipated India vs Pakistan match is set to take place at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on February 23 as part of the group stage of the 2025 Champions Trophy, which will be held in Pakistan and the UAE.
Originally, Pakistan was slated to host the mega event. However, due to off-field issues, the BCCI declined to send Team India to Pakistan, prompting the ICC to relocate India’s matches to the United Arab Emirates.
As a result, all of India’s matches will be played in the UAE. Ticket sales for the UAE matches of the 2025 Champions Trophy have already commenced, with a particular focus on the India vs Pakistan clash on February 23 at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium.
To secure tickets for the much-anticipated encounter, fans can visit the official ICC website and purchase passes starting at AED 125, which is approximately equivalent to ₹3,000. The demand for tickets for India’s matches is incredibly high, leading to long queues on the ticket-selling platform as thousands of fans vie for the limited available tickets.
In terms of the historical context, the forthcoming India vs Pakistan match marks the first international meeting between the two teams in Dubai since the Asia Cup 2022, which was contested in the T20I format. During that tournament, India and Pakistan each secured a victory against the other in their two encounters.
The last ODI match between India and Pakistan in Dubai occurred during the 2018 Asia Cup, where India emerged victorious in both fixtures against Pakistan. Indian fans will undoubtedly be hoping for a similar outcome in the 2025 Champions Trophy showdown.
As fans eagerly await the thrilling contest between these cricketing rivals, the stage is set for an electrifying encounter at the Dubai International Cricket Stadium on February 23. Stay tuned for what promises to be a riveting clash between India and Pakistan in the 2025 Champions Trophy.
