Canada,03,FEB,2026,(India Today News CA):- Pakistan’s government has indeed announced that their cricket team will participate in the T20 World Cup 2026 but will boycott the scheduled group-stage match against India on February 15 in Colombo. This decision, posted on official social media, allows Pakistan to play other Group A opponents like the USA, Namibia, and Netherlands while forfeiting the India clash, potentially costing them two points. The move stems from ongoing political tensions, following the ICC’s handling of Bangladesh’s participation issues.
