BCCI's sweeping step after Pahalgam attack, writes to ICC over Pakistan matches

By our Special Correspondent

The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has decided to boycott Pakistan as much as possible in International Cricket Council (ICC) tournaments in the wake of the Pahalgam terror attack.

As far as cricket is concerned, Team India has not been playing bilateral cricket with Pakistan since 2012-13 due to the poor relations between the neighbouring countries. Their cricket engagement only comes in ICC and Asian Cricket Council (ACC) events. They last met as recently as February in the Champions Trophy 2025.
