Ahead of the ICC T20 World Cup 2026, India head coach Gautam Gambhir declined to comment on Pakistan's announced boycott of their Group A match scheduled for February 15 in Colombo. Pakistan's government directed the boycott in solidarity with Bangladesh, which was excluded from the tournament. The ICC has urged Pakistan Cricket Board to reconsider, warning of potential consequences. India, as defending champions, will proceed to the venue and await official decisions if the match is forfeited, which could affect tournament standings.
