India Chooses Not to Send Kabaddi Team to Pakistan, Federation Expresses Disappointment

Kabaddi Team

The Indian Kabaddi team has decided not to participate in the upcoming series in Pakistan, a move that has disappointed both fans and officials.

This series, which was eagerly anticipated by Kabaddi enthusiasts on both sides of the border, was initially scheduled to take place next week in Kartarpur, with additional matches planned for Lahore and Bahawalpur.

The Pakistan Kabaddi Federation’s Secretary expressed deep regret over India’s decision, highlighting the extensive preparations made in anticipation of the event.

“The decision is disappointing,” he remarked, “as we had organized a dedicated training camp and made significant efforts to ensure that the series would be an exciting spectacle for fans in both countries.”

The cancellation of the series represents a missed opportunity for enhancing sporting ties between India and Pakistan. It also marks a setback for the growth of Kabaddi in both nations, as the matches were seen as a chance to foster cross-border camaraderie and showcase the region’s passion for the sport.

Pakistani players and fans were particularly hopeful about the series, as it was expected to bring together athletes from both nations in a spirit of healthy competition.

In the context of strained relations between the two countries, this development has further deepened the divide in sporting interactions.

The absence of the Indian team from the event has left many disheartened, with hopes now pinned on future opportunities for bilateral sports events.

This cancellation comes at a time when other sporting events between the two nations are also facing obstacles.

In a related development, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has officially written to the International Cricket Council (ICC) to seek clarification regarding India’s refusal to participate in the Champions Trophy, an event initially scheduled to be hosted by Pakistan.

The ongoing challenges in facilitating international sporting events highlight the ongoing tensions in relations between India and Pakistan, impacting not just cricket but also other sports like Kabaddi.
