Lahore: Asia Cup 2023 is set to kick off on August 30th with an exciting match between Pakistan and Nepal at the Multan Stadium.

In the lead-up to the tournament, there were speculations about the Indian cricket team playing in Pakistan, but recent developments clarified that India's matches will be held at a neutral venue in Sri Lanka.

Sri Lanka has been selected as the co-host for the Asia Cup, alongside Pakistan.

A recent viral image on social media showing the Indian cricket team's jersey with "Pakistan" written on it has sparked discussions and surprises among fans.

The picture features Indian captain Rohit Sharma and former captain Virat Kohli donning the jersey, clearly displaying the name "Pakistan," which suggests the possibility that India may play against Pakistan in the tournament.

Although this news hasn't been officially confirmed, it's possible that the Indian team may wear jerseys with "Pakistan" written on them for matches against Pakistan.

The media reports emphasize the importance of displaying the host country's name alongside the Asia Cup logo on the jerseys of all participating teams.

The much-anticipated clash between arch-rivals Pakistan and India in the Asia Cup is scheduled for September 2nd at the Pallekele International Cricket Stadium in Sri Lanka.
