Pakistan’s former cricket board chairman and ICC former president, Ehsan Mani, has stated that India’s boycott of Pakistan will not impose any restrictions on Pakistan. In an interview with Indian media, Ehsan Mani said that if the Pakistani team boycotts the scheduled match against India in the T20 World Cup due to government orders, there will be no restrictions on Pakistan.
He further added that India has also refused to play matches in Pakistan in the 2025 Champions Trophy, citing government orders. Therefore, Pakistan cannot be penalized for boycotting India in the T20 World Cup.
Pranati Chatterjee, a member of the Indian Parliament and a member of the radical Hindu organization Shiv Sena (UBT), has also reacted to Pakistan’s decision to boycott the scheduled match against India in the T20 World Cup.
According to Ehsan Mani, unfortunately, the ICC has failed to address the issue and has instead become a spectator, allowing politics to creep into the game. It is worth mentioning that Pakistan has given its national cricket team permission to participate in the T20 World Cup, but the team will boycott the scheduled match against India on February 15 as a show of solidarity with Bangladesh.
