ISLAMABAD: Pakistan’s Defense Minister Khawaja Asif called for a new global cricket governing body on Tuesday, saying that the International Cricket Council (ICC) has become hostage to Indian political interests amid a fresh row between the neighbors ahead of the T20 World Cup 2026.

However, Islamabad said the national team will boycott its upcoming fixture against India on Feb. 15 without mentioning a reason.
