Talking about upcoming India-Pakistan Asia Cup 2025 match, Shiv Sena (UBT) leader Aaditya Thackeray said, "Why is the BCCI so excited to play a match against Pakistan?" "Pakistan decided to boycott the 2025 Men's Hockey Asia Cup as the tournament was being hosted by India. Why can't we also boycott," he added. He further accused the BCCI of being anti-national.
