The International Cricket Council has rejected key demands made by the Pakistan Cricket Board over the India match at the T20 World Cup, reports said. The PCB asked for the return of India-Pakistan bilateral series, higher revenue, and assurances against past controversies. It also sought financial support for Bangladesh after their exit from the tournament. The ICC said it had nothing extra to offer Bangladesh beyond its regular share of earnings. ICC officials urged Pakistan to end the boycott, warning it could harm the sport. A final decision is expected after approval from the Pakistan government. (PC: AFP)
