Team India captain Suryakumar Yadav defended the gesture, adding that they wanted to show solidarity with the families of the 26 civilians killed in the Pahalgam terror attack.
The PCB then approached the ICC and threatened to pull out of the tournament if Pycroft was not removed from the panel of referees. However, the ICC reportedly rejected the demand.
