The PCB said it filed a complaint with the International Cricket Council \u201cin respect of inappropriate conduct targeted at the Pakistan squad during the India vs Pakistan match.\u201d<\/p>\n

India improved to 8-0 against its archrival in the 50-over World Cup as Pakistan was bowled out for 191, losing its last eight wickets for only 36 runs.<\/p>\n

Pakistan played earlier Cricket World Cup games in Hyderabad, where it was warmly greeted during victories over the Netherlands and Sri Lanka.<\/p>\n

In Ahmedabad, Pakistan captain Babar Azam was booed when he came for the toss with Indian skipper Rohit Sharma.<\/p>\n

Pakistan team director Mickey Arthur said it looked like a \u201cbilateral series\u201d game.<\/p>\n

\u201cLook, I\u2019d be lying if I said it did (not affect us),\u201d Arthur said. \u201cIt didn\u2019t seem like an ICC event, to be brutally honest. It seemed like a bilateral series, it seemed like a BCCI event.\u201d<\/p>\n

Only handful of journalists from Pakistan travelled to Ahmedabad and fans in Pakistan have scant information from India about visas.<\/p>\n

The PCB said it \u201chas lodged another formal protest with the ICC over delays in visas for Pakistani journalists and the absence of a visa policy for Pakistan fans.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
