Pakistan will send a team to India for October and November’s 50-over World Cup, ending months of uncertainty about their participation.

The two sides have only played in World Cups and neutral venues since 2013 because of political tensions.

“Pakistan has consistently maintained that sports should not be mixed with politics,” a Pakistan foreign office statement said.

They will meet in the Asia Cup on 2 September in Kandy, Sri Lanka.

“Pakistan believes that the state of bilateral relations with India should not stand in the way of fulfilling its international sports-related obligations,” the statement added.
