While there were a few speculation regarding Pakistan's participation in the ICC Men's ODI World Cup in 2023, the Pakistan government gave a green signal to the country's senior men's side to travel to India for the marquee global cricket tournament set to commence on October 5.



"Pakistan has consistently maintained that sports should not be mixed with politics. It has, therefore, decided to send its Cricket Team to India to participate in the upcoming ICC Cricket World Cup 2023," the release from Pakistan's foreign ministry dated August 6 said.

"We expect that full safety and security of Pakistan Cricket Team will be ensured during its visit to India," it added.
