The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) has officially denied reports suggesting India's withdrawal from the upcoming Asia Cup and the Women's Emerging Teams Asia Cup. BCCI Secretary Devajit Saikia clarified that no such decision has been made, labeling the claims as baseless. This statement comes amid speculations that India might pull out of Asian Cricket Council (ACC) events due to escalating tensions with Pakistan. Saikia emphasized that the matter hasn't even been discussed within the board, reaffirming India's commitment to participating in ACC tournaments. The BCCI's clarification aims to quell rumors and maintain focus on the sport amidst geopolitical concerns. (PC: PTI)
