    BCCI asks ICC to keep Pakistan, India in separate groups
  • The BCCI has decided that India will not play cricket against Pakistan even in multi-nation tournaments.

    With bilateral relations deteriorating, the BCCI asked the ICC to keep the 2 teams in separate groups in the upcoming tournaments.

    BCCI president Anurag Thakur said this decision had been taken after considering India's political stance to isolate Pakistan.

    Credits:
  • India and Pakistan played their first ever cricket match in 1952, five years after independence.

    Pakistan visited India for a five match test series. India then visited Pakistan in 1955.

    The Indo-Pakistani wars of 1965 and 1971 put all cricket between the two nations on hold.

    Cricket resumed when India visited Pakistan and the first ODI was played on 1 October 1978.

  • Historical

    59 Tests and 127 ODIs played so far

  • From 1952 to 2007, India and Pakistan have played 59 test matches; Pakistan won 12 matches and India nine. The remaining 38 matches were drawn. The two nations have played 127 ODI matches between 1978-2015. India has won 51 matches and Pakistan has won 72.

  • The sporting crisis between India and Pakistan became worse after the 26/11 terror attacks in Mumbai.

    The two countries have since played only in 3-ODI and 2-T20I series in late 2012.

    No Test matches have been played, and all the other face-offs have taken place in multi-nation tournaments such as the various ICC matches, and the Asia Cup.

    No Pakistani players to feature in IPL
  • The Pakistan Cricket Board said that Pakistani players can only play in the Indian Premier League once India and Pakistan restored their bilateral ties on a permanent basis.

    Bilateral ties have always mirrored sporting relations between the 2 nations.

    Pakistani players were a part of the first edition of the IPL but following the Mumbai terror attacks the sporting ties were suspended.
