Just before the ICC Champions Trophy 2025, the Indo-Pak cricket rivalry reignited as former cricketers Shoaib Akhtar and Harbhajan Singh recreated their heated exchange from the 2010 Asia Cup in a fun video. The video, shared by Akhtar on X, quickly went viral, bringing back memories of the intense match where Harbhajan had the last laugh by smashing a match-winning six off Mohammad Amir, sealing India’s victory.
This time, instead of aggression, the two legends relived the moment with laughter and nostalgia during the ongoing ILT20 2025. The clip served as an exciting teaser for the much-anticipated India vs. Pakistan clash in the Champions Trophy, scheduled for February 23. Both teams have announced their squads for the tournament, with India led by Rohit Sharma and featuring star players like Virat Kohli, Shubman Gill, and Rishabh Pant.
Meanwhile, Pakistan, under Mohammad Rizwan, will rely on Shaheen Afridi and Babar Azam to challenge their arch-rivals. The video not only entertained fans but also built anticipation for the marquee encounter, where the two cricketing giants will once again battle for supremacy on the grand stage.
