Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) refuses to take a stand on potential boycott of Pakistan in 2019 World Cup, puts responsibility on central government to take a decision. BCCI will submit concerns to International Cricket Council (ICC).
The controversy started after a Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF) convoy of 78 vehicles carrying 2,547 soldiers was attacked by a car bomb in Jammu and Kashmir’s Pulwama district on February 14. More than 40 CRPF jawans were killed and many others were injured. This is termed as the worst attack on Indian soldiers since 1989 insurgency started in the valley.
