Let us tell you that the match between India and Pakistan will now be played on 15th February.

Mohsin Naqvi mentioned Asim Munir on India-Pak match controversy.
Ind vs Pak Match News: Pakistan never stops displaying its meanness. Be it the international stage or the cricket field. Even on the India-Pak match dispute, Pakistan has once again shown its strength. Trophy thief Mohsin Naqvi crossed the limits of flattery when he dragged Asim Munir’s name into the romance of the India-Pak match. Yes, Pakistan has agreed to play the T20 World Cup match with India on 15 February. However, just a few hours before this, Mohsin Naqvi created another controversy by taking the name of Field Marshal Asim Munir.
Just a few hours before the end of the drama of India-Pakistan match, Mohsin Naqvi took the name of Pakistan Army Chief Field Marshal Asim Munir and said that we are not afraid of anyone’s threat. Neither India nor ICC. And Asim Munir is never afraid. This was said when the Pakistan government was still threatening to boycott the match. But after a few hours, Pakistan took a U-turn and allowed the team to play against India in Colombo on 15 February.
‘Not afraid of threats’
Trophy thief Mohsin Naqvi said in the press conference, ‘Neither I am afraid of threats from India and ICC, nor the Pakistan government. And you know about Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir, he is never afraid. Sources say that Mohsin Naqvi deliberately took the name of Army Chief Asim Munir so that the cricket issue becomes a message between the army and the government. Anyway, Mohsin Naqvi himself is the Interior Minister of Pakistan. Therefore his statement is only flattering to Asim Munir.
Why did Asim Munir’s name come up?
Pakistan’s Mohsin Naqvi did not take the name of Asim Munir just like that. He was seen trying to hide the pain caused by Operation Sindoor. India launched Operation Sindoor in May 2025. After the terrorist attack in Pahalgam, India attacked terrorist bases in Pakistan and PoK. There was tension on both sides for four days. India gave many wounds to Pakistan. But Pakistan considered it a victory and gave the highest rank of Field Marshal to General Asim Munir. No one had got this rank after 1959. The Pakistan government said that because of Munir’s bravery the country remained safe.
Naqvi’s flattery
Now Mohsin Naqvi, by taking the name of the same Munir, wanted to show that Pakistan is strong and will not come under any pressure. But after a few hours Pakistan bowed down. He decided to play the match with India. Mohsin Naqvi is showing his strength by taking the name of the biggest officer of the army. Many people are calling it flattery of the army.
Why Pakistan’s U-turn?
Pakistan Cricket Board had earlier talked about not playing the match in the name of standing with Bangladesh. Now when the ICC rubbed him, he understood his worth. ICC did not impose any penalty on Bangladesh, but by keeping it in its side, Pakistan was clean bowled. It was only on ICC’s request that the Chairman of Bangladesh Cricket Board himself said to play the match with India. Cricket will benefit from this. At the same time, the President of Sri Lanka called Prime Minister Shahbaz Sharif. UAE also said that everyone will suffer loss due to cancellation of the match.
