The T20 World Cup 2026 is currently being held in India and Sri Lanka, with a total of six matches played so far. The Indian team started their campaign with a victory against the USA, but all eyes are on the India-Pakistan match on February 15th.
The Pakistani government had announced a boycott of the match against India, but some reports suggest that Pakistan might reverse its decision. A meeting was held on February 8th between officials from the ICC, PCB, and BCB regarding this matter.
ICC vs PCB: Pakistan Lays Down These 3 Major Conditions
The meeting took place at the Gaddafi Stadium in Lahore between BCB President Aminul Islam Bulbul, ICC Deputy Chairman Imran Khwaja, and PCB Chairman Mohsin Naqvi. However, the meeting did not reach a conclusion, and the PCB chairman appeared adamant during the discussions. According to some reports, the PCB has put forward certain conditions to the ICC for withdrawing its decision to boycott the match against India. Let's look at these conditions:
1. Pakistan wants more revenue from the world body.
2. Resumption of bilateral cricket relations with India.
3. Indian players should shake hands with Pakistani players during the T20 World Cup.
India will never agree to Pakistan's second demand. The last bilateral series between India and Pakistan was played in 2012. Due to political tensions, the two teams have only faced each other in ICC tournaments for the past 16 years. After the Pulwama attack last year, India stopped shaking hands with Pakistan. Since the Asia Cup 2025, Indian players have not shaken hands with Pakistani players during matches.
Sources also revealed that while some PCB officials are ready to play the match against India in Colombo on February 15th, the board chairman, Mohsin Naqvi, is not cooperating on the matter. Nakvi is scheduled to meet with Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif on Monday to consult with him once again before making a final decision.
