Ever since India cut bilateral cricket ties with Pakistan after attacks in Mumbai in 2008, the two teams only compete against each other in international multi team events.
Pakistan players also do not play in the IPL one of the richest sports leagues in the world.

While that may remain a far possibility, incidents such as Pujara and Rizwan forging a partnership together in a county match will be the closest we will come to see two nations together on cricket field for some time.
