New Delhi. The ICC T20 World Cup has already begun, but uncertainty continues to surround the high-voltage India–Pakistan clash scheduled to be held in Colombo on February 15. Following a recent incident involving Bangladesh, the Pakistani government has made it clear that its team will not take the field against India. Despite this stance, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has yet to submit an official written communication to the ICC confirming the decision. Meanwhile, back-channel discussions between the ICC and the PCB are ongoing, leaving the fate of the much-anticipated match hanging in the balance.
