India, Pakistan Could Meet at 2026 Asian Games in Japan

India and Pakistan have a famous cricket rivalry and often play each other in big tournaments.

However, when they play in the Asian Games, things are arranged differently.

Usually, in tournaments like the World Cup, they are placed in the same group so they meet early.

But at the Asian Games, they are not put in the same group.

This means an India versus Pakistan match is not guaranteed.

They could only meet in one of two ways.

One way is if both teams win their matches and reach the final.

The other way is if both teams lose in the semifinals and play each other for third place.

The next Asian Games will be held in Japan in 2026.

So fans will have to wait and see if these two rival teams face each other there.
