Pakistan Refuses to Formally Inform ICC About T20 WC Boycott Against India

• Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will not formally inform the ICC about the government's decision to boycott the T20 World Cup 2026 match against India in Colombo.
• The absence of formal communication means the India-Pakistan match remains active, and the boycott drama continues.
• India is expected to travel to Colombo for the match; if Pakistan's captain does not appear for the toss, India will receive a walkover and two points.
• If Pakistan boycotts, the ICC may punish them, potentially banning them from international cricket or the T20 World Cup 2026, with Uganda as a possible replacement.
• Sanctions could include preventing member countries from bilateral series in Pakistan and stopping overseas players from participating in the PSL.

Why It Matters: Pakistan's refusal to formally notify ICC about the T20 World Cup boycott against India keeps the match active.
