ICC vs PCB T20 World Cup 2026 Live Updates: ICC warns Pakistan
ICC has warned Pakistan. The ICC said, "We have taken cognizance of the statement of the Government of Pakistan, in which the team has been directed to participate selectively in the T20 World Cup. However, we have not yet received a formal communication from the PCB. This situation of selective participation does not match the basic concept of any global sporting event, where all teams have to compete as per the scheduled schedule. ICC tournaments are based on the principles of fairness, competition, continuity and equality of the game and no one match or opponent has any basis. Creating distance dilutes the sanctity and spirit of the competition."
