In the wake of the tragic Pahalgam terror attack that claimed 26 lives, Pakistan cricket captain Mohammad Rizwan expressed hope that the incident would not affect cricketing ties between India and Pakistan. Rizwan emphasized that players like Virat Kohli are part of his cricketing family and urged that politics should not interfere with sports. The attack has intensified tensions between the two nations, leading to cross-border firing and India's suspension of the Indus Waters Treaty and revocation of Pakistani nationals' visas. Despite calls from figures like Sourav Ganguly to sever cricketing ties, the BCCI maintains its stance of boycotting bilateral tournaments with Pakistan. (PC: NDTV Sports)
