India vs Pakistan Cricket Matches In 2026: Arch-rivals India and Pakistan had witnessed lots of high-octane matches last year, where they played in mega events like the Champions Trophy, Asia Cup, and the Women’s ODI World Cup.
Every time it was India that won that match, which also includes the title-winning final at the Asia Cup.
And now the question is, when will these two teams face each other in 2026?
Owing to political tensions, these two teams don’t play in bilateral series anymore. They just face each other in ICC and multi-nation events.
