Foreign Office Spokesperson says we expect that Pakistan Cricket team will receive the requisite courtesies and full safety and security during its visit to India to participate in the ICC Cricket World Cup.
According to Foreign Office, Pakistan’s decision to participate in the ICC Cricket World Cup reflects Islamabad’s consistent position that sports cannot not be mixed with politics.
Pakistan’s constructive and responsible approach contrasts with that of India which has repeatedly politicized sports by refusing to send its Cricket Team to Pakistan for the Asia Cup or denying visas for Pakistan’s Blind Cricket Team.
The Spokesperson said our deep concerns about the security of Pakistan’s Cricket Team are also being conveyed to the International Cricket Council and the Indian authorities.
