The ICC T20 Cricket World Cup is set to start under a cloud, after Pakistan said they will boycott their pool match against tournament co-hosts India.

Although no reason has been given for the decision made by the Pakistani government, it is believed to be because of their dissatisfaction with the ICCs decision to remove Bangladesh from the competition and bring in Scotland.

Bangladesh were kicked out of the World Cup two weeks ago after it refused to play any matches in India, alleging security concerns, and asked that its four pool matches be moved to tournament co-hosts Sri Lanka.
