PCB chairman consults Prime Minister about participation or boycott of T20 World Cup 2026.
PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi will take the final decision regarding the participation of the national team in the T20 World Cup or not according to the instructions of the Prime Minister.
Sources reveal that various options are being considered for the Pakistan team’s participation in the World Cup.
Bangladesh’s exclusion from the mega event, among other issues, will be discussed in the meeting. Pakistan may boycott T20 World Cup in protest.
The sources revealed that there is also a proposal to refuse to play a match against India in the World Cup for Pakistan, while the participation of the Pakistan team in the World Cup matches is evaluated with black rings.
The World Cup matches will be won on behalf of Bangladeshi cricket fans.
It is worth recalling that after the Bangladeshi player was pulled out of the IPL due to security concerns, the Bangladesh Cricket Board had banned sending its team to India due to security concerns.
Bangladesh took a stand on how to provide security to the entire team in a country where none of our players can be protected by security agencies.
However, the ICC, adopting a double standard, rejected Bangladesh’s position and replaced Bangladesh with Scotland.
The PCB chairman supported Bangladesh Cricket Board’s stand of not playing in India and said that Bangladesh’s stand is based on principles, Pakistan Cricket Board rejects ICC’s double standards.
On the other hand, the dangerous virus spreading in India has already threatened the T20 World Cup.
In India’s West Bengal, five people, including two nurses and a doctor, have been confirmed with the Nipah virus and are said to be in critical condition.
This dangerous virus started spreading a few weeks before the start of the T20 World Cup on February 7.
If the severity of the virus increases, it can have a serious impact on event preparations, logistics and security arrangements.
