No Pak women's team in World Cup: Sources
January 15, 2013
After recent ceasefire violations by Pakistan, and the barbaric
killing of two Indian jawans by Pakistani troops, sources say
the Pakistan women's cricket team is unlikely to come for the World Cup
starting in India later this month, reports NDTV.
The Board of Control for Cricket in
India has written to the International Cricket Council or ICC on
concerns over security for the team.
Rajiv Shukla, Minister of State for Parliamentary Affairs said,
"Whatever reactions we are getting from different political parties and
protest groups, we will convey to the ICC and, accordingly, ICC will
have to take a decision." He added that any "decision will be taken
keeping in mind the sentiments of the people."
