Pakistan should not boycott the T20I World Cup 2026

[globetrotter]

Broadcasters will sue ICC , then ICC will counter sue PCB

Insurance works in case of unforseen events like rain affected games but they will not accept pre planned boycott. Like ur car insurance takes care of accidents but not if u damage it urself to get insurance payout

And PCB will sue BCB

 

[Local.Dada]

Pakistan boycotting will change the game, BCCICC will suffer financially big time.

Absolutely. India will be bumped off to No.9 economy, almost 5 slots due to this. Best opportunity for Pak

 

[Sachin fan]

I am not a fan of Mohsin Naqi but he is handling the situation very well.It is the Indian government which makes decisions for BCCI.It was the Indian government which didn’t allow India to travel to Pakistan.Pakistan government should do exactly the same.It should not allow PCB to take part.I believe Indian Cricket Council(ICC) will have no legal recourse.The precedent was set by India and no action was taken or could have been taken.

There is a reason BCCI didn't back out of any tournament.

If you don't understand the difference between not touring and backing out of entire tournament, I pity you

If india has refused to play tournaments they would have lost all their Power.

What PCB is ensuring by boycotting is that the other 14 nations will just side with india and make Pakistan a pariah in cricket

ICC can’t sue PCB because Pakistan government will make the decision to boycott.Indian Cricket Council(ICC) can not sue governments.It has no jurisdiction to sue governments.PCB will plead it had to obey government orders.

 

[90MPH]

It’s about the double standards.

It’s about India picking and choosing wherever they can play and then misusing their power to tell other countries they have to play at their home come what may.

Pakistan and Bangladesh have very good relations off the field so this will be a political decision rather than a sporting one.

Again I have said before sports and politics shouldn’t be mixed but since India want to play this game then so should other countries. They started this.

I will support whatever decision Pak government takes.

 

[NishanKonar]

And PCB will sue BCB

BCB will be like " hum to pehle se hi kangaal gai "

 

[Snowflake]

There is a difference between supporting what is right and shooting yourself in the foot.

Not playing the WC will be considered S the latter.

Pakistan has gotten what it demanded. A hybrid model where it doesn’t need to set foot in India for any tournaments that India hosts. We have no justification to not participate now.

Provide all support to BD and call out the ICC for its hypocrisy- but no need to damage yourself in the process

 

[Hikaru]

ICC can’t sue PCB because Pakistan government will make the decision to boycott.Indian Cricket Council(ICC) can not sue governments.It has no jurisdiction to sue governments.PCB will plead it had to obey government orders.

No one needs to sue Pakistani government when all that needs to be done is to take away PCB's share of ICC handouts.

No handouts = No PCB

 

[Fenrir]

Absolutely. India will be bumped off to No.9 economy, almost 5 slots due to this. Best opportunity for Pak

Financial loss is not an issue.It will not affect India.The boycott will make this WC controversial and create divisions.India started using sports as a political weapon so other countries should do the same.

Did anyone stop pakistan when they wanted to play in Sri Lanka?

Do you understood the difference between a reasonable well planned request and a board lying and throwing tantrums because a player was not selected in ba private league?

14 out for 16 countries didn't think Bangladesh had a case . Sri Lanka and Ireland refused to change groups


Why are you LYING it was BCCI dude? I have said this before but at this time it seems lying has seeped into you guys very blood and you cannot live without lying

You guys really believe a lie repeated a 1000 times becomes the truth but the real world doesn't work like that

Thats not how it works. Bcoz PCB has allready made certain demands and they wer accepted. U cannot change terms again after signing on the contract

Now if PCB boycotts - they will have no leg to stand in a court of law

 

[Sachin fan]

What’s BCCI got to do with anything? It’s an ICC tournament

14 out of 16 countries didn't think BCB had a case. Ireland and sri Lanka refused BCB request of group change at last moment.

But these guys are so used to lying they genuinely believe if they keep lying about BCCI somehow it will make their childish tantrums true

So they keep repeating the same lies about double standards and other things.

 

[jeeteshssaxena]

Pakistan can beat any team in the world if the team is selected based on merit

For the last two years or so, the Pakistani team is mostly a team of Generals Appeasing Cricketers

That's why despite their extremely horrible performances these cricketers retain their spots

We, the cricket fans spends hours discussing why particular players are not dropped through cricket analysis

The truth is that these players are here to stay regardless of how poorly they perform

No they cannot, stop living in la la land.

They will get beaten left, right and centre by every big team.

 

[Local.Dada]

A lot of Pakistanis and Bangladeshi fans think that the nuisance value they bring is a great accomplishment. It is what it is- “nuisance”. It can be an irritant and once in a while BCCI- ICC look the other way and let it slide because sometimes it’s not worth it and you need to keep the bigger picture in mind like business, jobs etc and a larger cricket ecosystem in mind.

Lack of responsibility or accountability brings in this “we have nothing to lose attitude” and not in a good way to ther kind of boards.

Just like with any nuisance value, once it reaches unbearable levels it will be taken care off in one big swoop. As a cricket fan I hope it doesn’t get to that. However let’s see how much more these boards can needle us.

 

[globetrotter]

When BCB was asking ICC to change its venue from India, at that time Naqvi must have been dialing BCB every hour to encourage them to boycott WC.... on the backing of PCB, BCB boycotted this WC.
Now BCB must dialing PCB every hour, but Naqvi not picking their phone...

Thats why hez telling Pakistan PM will take a final call

 

[Local.Dada]

Financial loss is not an issue.It will not affect India.The boycott will make this WC controversial and create divisions.India started using sports as a political weapon so other countries should do the same.

The ICC voting is 14-2 (we know who the 2 are), so how is it causing any divisions, care to explain?

You are probably confusing a Pakistani team selected based on merit with your Indian team, which is struggling winning a bilateral series on its own soil - in test an ODI cricket

Pakistan boycotted 2009 IPL thinking it will create big nuisance for BCCI & force BCCI to grovel in front of them

Well we know how it turned out

 

[cricketjoshila]

Screw this redundant tournament

Pakistan should boycott this redundant tournament and hurt the wallets of BCCI and other boards who want to implement a cast system in international cricket

Also, the so called Pakistani team is not even selected based on merit

Half of these players have retained their spots in the team despite the repeated failures because they are appeasers of Pak Generals

I want Pakistan to boycott but I know that Naqvi is just raising his own profile by discussing the potential boycott. Pakistan most likely will play the World Cup because cricket diverts attention from the real issues in Pakistan like the de facto martial law

Redundant? How is this tournament redundant?

I hardly come onto the forums these days because it’s most pointless debating with nationalistic Indians who worship whatever the Indian government does and never criticise them come what may.

And we have had a Indian fascist government in power for the past 12 years that are now sticking their noses into the sport with the right wing media institutions just parroting whatever they want without any pushback. So of course the population will also clap like seals too.

This Modi government in particular has turned cricket into a joke with their power grab and dictatorial decisions with the my way or highway approach. About time they face some consequences. This is the only language a fascist government understands, not constant appeasement which they only take advantage of.

Thats my rant, I will leave it with the Pak government to make the best decision politically suited to their interests.

14 out of 16 countries voted against Bangladesh

Ireland and sri lanka refused to have BCB in their group at last moment.

None of this has anything to do with BCCI or Modi or nay double standards. Pak and Bangla fans can lie about this all they want.

Indian team already won last two icc trophies in two years which is more than your entire cupboard in this millennium.

Yes, your Pak team is non talented and weak. It doesn’t matter who gets selected, even if you play with 15 players you will lose.

It will create divisions and unpleasantness.The future ICC events in the subcontinent will be questionable.Many former players are already unhappy with politicisation of cricket.The visa issue was a farce.ICC’s credibility has been eroded.It is acting as Indian Cricket Council not International Cricket Council.

India won three ICC trophy in last 2 year ( women's World Cup, world T20 and champion trophy)

This is equal to ICC trophy won by Pakistan in entire history.

Money and power can handle these divisions. “Many former players” can be bought with a nice job or a nice watch at best. You think England and Australia have some special love for India? They don’t need the money either I would assume but 2-3 extra zeroes in the payout makes a world of difference over some pointless subcontinent politics or sentiments.

Pak and Bangla have 0 things to offer to the world of cricket. That’s the harsh truth.

So once the wc starts everting will be business as usual.

True, they don't have anything left other than that nuisance value. BD I can understand, their team is worthless anyways but Pak atleast have some respect attached to it due to past heritage and all, kinda sad to see them throw it all away for something that doesn't even concern them.

Also that delusion of grandeur lol. They think if they don't watch the tournament ICC will lose billions in revenue. What these simple folks don't understand is that their 'Purchasing Power Parity' is crap, their 'millions' of eyeball translate to very little in terms of actual and this WC is going to be the most profitable WC for some time to come simply because it will be in India and the players that Indians will spend money and time to watch, Indians and non-Indians will all be playing.

They thought the same for IPL, that without their players IPL will be a flop. We all know how that turned out for them. Same will happen here, if PCB actually outside itself in stupidity and decides to pull out of the wc, this would well and truly send them back to the post 2008 days. Not even talking about the revenue loss. At least bang bros got their naveen dance and thriving pole vaulting culture, what does the Pakistanis have?

 

[Rajdeep]

I genuinely hope Pakistan boycotts. It is not because I dont want to see them play or enjoy Ind v Pak game but to teach a lesson to its TV experts like Sikandar Bakht. He is saying ICC will suffer huge loss if Pakistan pulls out. I just want to test this theory. It is high time this myth and bravado gets busted

THis myth is going to busted very soon if not now .

If pakistan boycott the World T20 it will be totally based on politics so they will face senction

1) ICC May suspend PCB
2) No ICC revenue ,both yearly and ICC tournament.
3) PSL will he banned by ICC
4) broadcaster is going to sue PCB
5) relation with SL becomes worst because they are playing in Lanka.

PCB will think twice before boycotting the World T20.

This is why i wanted to boycott them because it will destroy entire Pakistan cricket.

Man have to say, out of all the Chairmans we have had, only Naqvi knew how troll BCCI and keep them on their edge.

It’s a matter between BCCI and BCB. PCB shouldn’t interfere. Bangladesh had declined playing in Pakistan for many years, even up till 2017. Their board is arguably worse run than PCB. No point meddling into this.

Breach of contract

If u boycott u are breaching the contract. Like Bangladesh has done. They will face similar charges

Pakistan should pull out, let Bangladesh play in their place and Scotland in place of Bangladesh It will serve all the purposes:

1. Pakistan will stick with their stance of standing in solidarity with their Bangladeshi brothers.
2. Bangladesh get to play all their games in SL, including El Classico clash with India on 15th Feb
3. Scotland gets to play in WT20 asl well.

This is a win win for everyone.

Agree brothers - @DeadlyVenom @Bhaijaan @Devadwal @Major

 

[SportsWarrior]

I don’t understand what’s wrong with Mohsin Naqvi? This is not your fight! There is no need to give these bombastic statements in the media invoking government involvement!

India went ahead and still played the Asia cup under your leadership after Bunyan al Marsoos. They got on with cricket and business. Yes their behaviour was $hit but they fulfilled their obligation!

You’ve done well to make this World Cup a co-host program and have all your matches in Sri Lanka. They have been fair in accommodating PCB/Pakistan. Do not be stupid and backtrack due to a matter that has none of your concern!


Nobody, and I mean NOBODY stood up for Pakistan in its years of exile since 2009! Everyone went ahead and got their money! What is the need for Pakistan to become this hero all of a sudden??

Just let it go! Do not be stupid and make this about your bloody ego!

This is a balanced take. PCB will be stupid to boycott as no one did anything when they were hand twisted in the past. BD didn’t talk about boycotting matches in champions trophy and neither here until mushfiquar saga came along. If PCB is smart they will continue to play.

Having said that if PCB boycotts it may be ultimately good for world cricket and fans as things will become black and white. Everyone will know BD and Pak will not travel to India and viceversa. There will be less drama and future editions can be planned better. Moreover it will give clarity to sponsors so they can bid for these events knowing where it is happening and who is participating

Bcb with a networth of 425 crore are willing to sacrifice 240 crore for their self respect, while BCCI with a net worth of over 18000 crore cant stop playing against Pakistan only for the sake of money.

 

[rpant_gabba]

Broadcaster can't sue them they will sue ICC, who will have some sort of insurance, same as if that match got rained off I guess, but yes there will be loss of participation fee.

Won't just be participation fee. ICC can make the case that it will also be the revenue distribution.

In 2026 their is only revenue positive tournament. So pak potentially say goodbye to that ~$30M.

Then their is the contract case. Pak signed an MPA and reneged on the contract. There will be consequences to that.

Of course, PCB will be welcome to take this up with CAS. That will also clarify what CAS limits are.

As far a course of events, we both want the same thing. Pak to stand in solidarity with east Pak brothers

 

[Bhaag Viru Bhaag]

[RedwoodOriginal]

Bangladesh overplayed their hand. They thought ICC would bluff but they miscalculated. Ofcourse it helps that they didn't have a high probability of getting past the first round anyway but I'm not sure how much this entire drama accomplished.

The simple reality is that India control the sport of cricket and whether we like it or not they are going to use it to project whatever little power they have. Does it show small-mindedness? yeah. But you have to understand that India right now is under the grip of Hindu nationalists who get off with these types of supposed wins - showing Bangladesh their place, using cricket to project power against Pakistan even when the whole world knows what actually happened with their jets and all. Because this is pretty much the only place where they can do that. Sad state of affairs but this is where we are. I'm sure alot of Indian posters will get mad seeing this post but tbh I don't care. If you appease/defend far-right Hindu nationalists then maybe you need to introspect before pointing fingers at others. There was a time when I looked at India with envy. Being the largest democracy in the world and a country whose constitution was founded on the ideals of secularism and liberalism. I wanted Pakistan to be like India in certain ways. But that is longer the case. Everything has gone to the dogs, so to speak. India may still be a powerful and growing economy but it has completely dumped those ideals.

Only thing I would say to the cricket boards is that don't do the same stuff they are doing. Alot of posters got mad at me when I said that Bangladesh shouldn't boycott the World Cup because once you get involved in this political nonsense you are putting yourself in the same pig pen as the other party. Pakistan did the same thing during theAsia Cup. Just don't indulge in this nonsense... hold yourself to a higher standard. I know what I'm saying will fall on deaf ears because South Asian people (in my experience) are very mentally immature and nationalistic, but whatever. This is what I think and idgaf what anyone else thinks. Its a travesty that it had to come to this. A test playing nation thrown out of an ICC tournament because one country didn't want to give an inch when it comes to projecting their power. Its called small d**k syndrome and when you have a small d**k you need to overcompensate in some way I guess

If you appease/defend far-right Hindu nationalists then maybe you need to introspect before pointing fingers at others. There was a time when I looked at India with envy. Being the largest democracy in the world and a country whose constitution was founded on the ideals of secularism and liberalism. I wanted Pakistan to be like India in certain ways. But that is longer the case. Everything has gone to the dogs, so to speak. India may still be a powerful and growing economy but it has completely dumped those ideals.

Only thing I would say to the cricket boards is that don't do the same stuff they are doing. Alot of posters got mad at me when I said that Bangladesh shouldn't boycott the World Cup because once you get involved in this political nonsense you are putting yourself in the same pig pen as the other party. Pakistan did the same thing during theAsia Cup. Just don't indulge in this nonsense... hold yourself to a higher standard. I know what I'm saying will fall on deaf ears because South Asian people (in my experience) are very mentally immature and nationalistic, but whatever. This is what I think and idgaf what anyone else thinks. Its a travesty that it had to come to this. A test playing nation thrown out of an ICC tournament because one country didn't want to give an inch when it comes to projecting their power. Its called small d**k syndrome and when you have a small d**k you need to overcompensate in some way I guess

Yiu bring politics so i just remind you Pakistan is still unable to repair all the airbases, radars, amd defend system taht india demolish through brahmos missiles.

Pakistan is nothing infront of india and Bangladesh is perfect example.

Ah yes, he is trolling BCCI by keeping his cricketers unsure of their participation . Great strategy

We are not talking about geniuses here.

Feeling sorry for Babar. Got pulled out of BBL in the name of World Cup preparation only for Mohsin Naqvi to start trolling

 

[cricketjoshila]

A world Cup every other year?

It's ridiculous

It wasn’t ridiculous till the last edition, once bangladesh is kicked out, it becomes ridiculous?

 

[NishanKonar]

should boycott the tournament.

Need to show ICC what it means to be a bully.

Exactly. Pakistan should boycott

A similar situation will arise for Pakistan in 2029. I hope Pakistan does what BD did.

Either Play in india or will be kick out like Bangladesh by BCCICC .

No need to boycott. Just forfeit the match with India.

This is the best way to avoid the embarrassment that Pakistan will have to face when india minnows Pakistan badly.

I don’t think it will. Pakistan will not travel to India and the ICC will happily oblige

The Pakistan-Bangladesh Cricket Council aka PBCC is going to set the status quo for world cricket going forward, ICC days are numbered.

Need one more recruit into this faction. Who will be the mystery pick?

I don't think ICC will happily oblige. They are basically a subsidiary of BCCI. It will be quite embarrassing to have to host some games outside India despite being the host, after all this bravado. BCCI won't let ICC do that. However, losing Pakistan will be much bigger blow so they have more leverage. Interesting times ahead.

No I think they will. There is no way they are twisting Pakistan’s arm into making them believe India is safe for them. No chance.

Maza to tab aaye ga jab zor ka jhatka lage ga (Financially)

THis myth is going to busted very soon if not now .

If pakistan boycott the World T20 it will be totally based on politics so they will face senction

1) ICC May suspend PCB
2) No ICC revenue ,both yearly and ICC tournament.
3) PSL will he banned by ICC
4) broadcaster is going to sue PCB
5) relation with SL becomes worst because they are playing in Lanka.

PCB will think twice before boycotting the World T20.

This is why i wanted to boycott them because it will destroy entire Pakistan cricket.

@Runner Up yes or maja ayega jab financial bhi jhatka lagegaa sath main.

BCCI/ ICC don't care about the merit of the argument with respect to security. That much is blatantly clear.
