India captain Suryakumar Yadav said ‌his team would travel to Colombo as planned for their Twenty20 World Cup clash against archrivals Pakistan, ‍despite Pakistan’s decision to ‍boycott the match, citing geopolitical tensions.

The Pakistani government directed its team to boycott the February 15 Group A contest to show solidarity with Bangladesh, who were replaced by Scotland following their refusal to tour India over safety concerns.
