The Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has decided to bar any team from using the country’s name in cricket events and was warned of legal action if used. The decision comes after India Champions boycotted a group stage and the semi-final of WCL 2025 amid prevailing geopolitical tension between the two countries. Disturbed by India boycotting the Shahid Afridi-led team, the PCB had called for an emergency meeting of the Board of Governors on Thursday.
Only we can use Pakistan: PCB
As per news agency ANI, the PCB has decided that only the board has the sole right to use the country’s name. The board has warned that legal action will be initiated against anyone who tries to use the country’s name at cricket events.
“All private organizations will face legal action in case they use Pakistan’s name. PCB has the sole right to allow its use for cricket events if it finds the authenticity of the League and the organization as reputable,” the report stated.
Further, the report states that PCB authorities were miffed with the fact that India boycotted Pakistan twice in WCL 2025. They felt that it dented the image of the country.
“The decision was taken after a detailed discussion in the Board of Directors meeting on Thursday. The high-level authorities felt Indian players refusing to play Pakistan in the WCL’s second edition twice is hurtful to the name of the country,” the report stated.
Despite these pull outs, the BCCI has gotten the nod from the government, for the India vs Pakistan matches in the Asia Cup 2025. There, India could play the neighbours, not once, but thrice. The first match is guaranteed in the league stages, while the next one could be in the Super 4’s, and the last one could be in the final.
