The Pakistan team was scheduled to play a five-test match series in India, followed by a return visit by India. However, the terror attack in Srinagar, which left five CRPF jawans dead, has changed the situation.
Ironically, the Sports Ministry and Home Ministry had reportedy given the permission for the bilateral Hockey series, but the MEA showed the red flag. Earlier, the bilateral snooker series between India and Pakistan was also cancelled.
