Indian Blind cricket council had informed PCB that since the Indian government didn’t give clearance, the Indian external affairs ministry had also not issued NOCs to the Indian team to travel to Lahore for the World Cup opening ceremony and matches. India would now play its matches of the World Cup in Ajman and Sharjah.
If India reaches the final, the final will also get relocated to UAE from Pakistan.
