Dubai, Apr 15:
India today sealed their qualification for the 2021 Women’s World Cup following the cancellation of their ODI Championship round against Pakistan with the BCCI not getting Government clearance to play the arch-rivals.
The India-Pakistan round was scheduled to take place between July and November last year but was always subject to Government clearance. Both teams will share points for the cancelled three-match series.
“With respect to the India v Pakistan series, the TC concluded that the series could not be played because of a Force Majeure event after the BCCI demonstrated that it was unable to obtain the necessary Government clearances to allow India to participate in the bilateral series against Pakistan, which forms a part of the ICC Women’s Championship,” said the ICC in a statement.
