The Board of Control for Cricket in India (BCCI) expressed deep sorrow over the deaths of Afghan cricketers Kabeer Agha, Sibghatullah, and Haroon in Pakistan’s recent airstrikes on Afghanistan’s Paktika province. The board strongly condemned the attack, calling it a “tragic and senseless loss of young sporting talent.” Extending solidarity to the Afghanistan Cricket Board and the victims’ families, the BCCI reaffirmed its stand against violence and terrorism. The board also reiterated its position on not resuming bilateral cricket ties with Pakistan until peace and safety for players are assured. (PC: NDTV)
