I heard this on Prime TV news last night that india do not wants to play against PAK. I don’t remember the name of the person who said this on behalf of india but I do remember what Prime TV stated in the news that “inda will never play any where any match against PAK they might pull out of World Cup if they are going to play against PAK”
They do not have to PULL OUT. Just not play the match and points will go to PAKISTAN. It has happened in the Past in 1996 world Cup WI and Australia refused to play their matches against Sri Lanka in Sri Lanka and we all know what happened since then.

Well as I have stated above I heard this on the news and in the news it said they might PULL OUT of the world cup they did not mention anything what you are saying.
I wasn't talking about Pakistan, I said Every Country has done that in the past including Yours as well as mine and you can't just single out India for that.
We did boycott South Africa for more than 20 years, Didn't we ? (Just an Example)

Asif, you're right to a certain extent. The match points would be coming our way anyways regardless of whether the Bharati team takes the field or not.

Sambri, Dont be so sure - In the World Cups OUR REOCRD IS 100% 3-0 (92,96,99 Three in a Row) and only way you will be able to get those points in a World Cup is when we dont take the field. So better start praying that we dont take the field.
So next time you post something like this - Make sure you have read the History. Now dont blame me, because truth stings and hurts. i know it will be an achievment for you guys in a World Cup. 'Jashn ki Taiyariyan Shuru karo bhai. Pehli baar world cup me India ke against me points milne wale hain.'

VOTE or No-VOTE.It was a political interference in Sports.!!!
And that is the point Asi is making.It has happened in past that people have introduced Politics in Sport.
Another example will be Boycott of Moscos Olympic by America.(Including Pakistan).

As I started this post and in my post I asked "Guys do you have more info on this?"
That was my main reason starting this post and wanted to find out if its really true or not. But I almost forgot that ppl like asif and aq are here who will take the post to totally an unrelated discussion.
Be brave and take things normal NOT personal like we Pakistani do.
Boycott or pull out of India from the world cup will be unfortunate, more for India then anyone else. India will face Pakistan either in the preliminary rounds and if they refuse to play against them they will forfeit points and I am sure there will be repercussions of that within the cricketing world, but if India refuses to play against Pakistan say in the semi finals or finals then they will not only be ruining the tournament they will be risking isolation and boycott from other cricketing nations as well. Can India afford that?
One more thing I’d like to say and that is if indian cricket board decide to PULL OUT of the world cup asif and aq you guys should be asking them not us. So stop coming up with negative thoughts and try to discuss the topic instead.
You never know they might PULL OUT of the whole world cup instead of just giving PAK walk over
