Ten years is a long time in India-Pakistan relations, which are often prone to fits and starts.

India has summoned Pakistan envoy and issued a strong demarche over Pakistan's continued support to cross-border terrorism in Kashmir, which has fuelled unrest in the Kashmir Valley.

India-Pakistan relations are “jatil” (complicated) and talks and terrorism cannot go together, says Indian external affairs minister Sushma Swaraj.

There is no shortage of emotion and expectation from fans around the world, even without the lure of an Asia Cup trophy as India-Pakistan cricket is in the air at the Sher-e-Bangla National Stadium in Mirpur.
