The media, mostly by visual media makes this issue, as if very big. First I think Harbajan an old war horse raised this issue. It is a question whether he would have commented had he been in the team.
Most of us may be aware while the Kargil was at its peak India played agst Pakistan in world cup 1999 in England. After the killings of more than a lakh of Tamil Civilians no body bothered to speak about Srilankan Team playing 2011 World Cup played in India. Later TN govt refused to allow Srilankan players to play in IPL games being played in Chennai. Later for political reasons some Tamil outfits protested IPL games caused the venue was shifted to Poona.
Still the govt does not opin or take any action but various people from different walks of life raise their voices not to play. Already all the countries refused to play agst Pakistan in Pakistan soil. There are so many ways to isolate Pakistan and not necessarily through only sports. Unless there is an economic ban agst Pak by all countries various types of similar problems would arise.

yes.yes. as if India Pakistan have never played against each other. there will be no more world cups after 2019. cricket is more important than the nation. is it because ur sons have not died in terror.
India is a big country and as if a caged beast is fighting without any directions, afraid, just killing itself, in turn harming others in vain not understanding what to do. India Pakistan should have been just a Big India, as already India has equal or more Muslims in this country
