This article is based on the argument that the New Great Game is being played under the guise of war against terrorism in the South and Central Asia. The geo-strategic location and presence of huge untapped energy reserves have initiated a tough geopolitical competition among the existing super power United States, future super power China and re-emerging Russia. This assumption seems correct as before the September 11, 2001, the US was not having any boots on the ground in this region to contain China and Russia, to soften orthodox Iran and to keep nuclear power Pakistan under check. The rationale of this article is based on the theoretical framework of Heartland Theory, crystalizing the diverging interests of regional stakeholders. The method of analysis is based on documents analysis.
