​​The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) is unlikely to withdraw from the Asia Cup 2025, despite rising tensions over the role of match referee Andy Pycroft during Pakistan’s match against India in Dubai on Sunday. Match referee Pycroft had asked Pakistan captain Salman Ali Agha and Indian captain Suryakumar Yadav to skip the customary handshake at the toss.

Amidst controversy and PCB threats, India refocuses on cricket, securing their spot in the Asia Cup 2025 Super 4s after UAE's victory over Oman. The upcoming UAE-Pakistan match becomes a virtual knockout, crucial for Pakistan after their defeat to India.
