Overview
- A PCB source said the board has raised with the ICC that captain Salman Ali Agha was left out of the ticket-sales promotion.
- The graphic featured five captains: Suryakumar Yadav (India), Aiden Markram (South Africa), Mitchell Marsh (Australia), Dasun Shanaka (Sri Lanka) and Harry Brook (England).
- The PCB argued Pakistan remains a major World Cup draw despite not being in the current top five of the ICC T20 rankings.
- Officials referenced an earlier Asia Cup campaign that initially omitted Pakistan’s captain and was corrected after the PCB approached the ACC.
- Reports carried by PTI via News18 did not include an ICC comment, and the 2026 T20 World Cup is scheduled to start on February 7 in India and Sri Lanka.
