The World Championship of Legends started from 18 July. In this, India vs Pakistan high-voltage match was to be played on Sunday, July 20, but now it has been canceled. Many Indian cricketers including Shikhar Dhawan, Irfan and Yusuf Pathan have refused to be a part of this match, that is why this match will not be done now. Now the WCL has issued a statement and explained why they had to cancel the India-Pakistan match.

After the Pahalgam terror attack, the relationship between India and Pakistan reached a very poor condition. Despite Operation Sindoor, the WCL organizers stated the reason for booking the India vs Pakistan match and said that they took such a decision due to a recent volleyball match and the upcoming hockey match.

WCL said through X, “Our entire team in WCL has been very much loved by cricket. We only want to give good and memorable moments to the fans. After hearing this, we booked the Indo-Pak match in the World Championship of Legends that the Pakistani hockey team is coming to India soon, while the teams of both countries came face to face in a volleyball match recently.”

The organizers of the World Championship of Legends also apologized for inadvertently hurting the feelings of the veterans. The WCL confirmed that the India vs Pakistan match is being canceled. Remind you that in the last season of WCL, India defeated Pakistan by 5 wickets.
