India head coach Gautam Gambhir personally believes the country should not play any cricket with Pakistan, not even in neutral venues, after a deadly Islamist militant attack in Indian Kashmir last month.

India’s coach Gautam Gambhir, a former politician for the country’s ruling BJP party, has declared that India should stop playing all cricket against Pakistan following a recent militant attack on tourists in Kashmir.

Over the past quarter of a century — a period during which India and Pakistan emerged as nuclear powers — the two countries have clashed several times but the military exchanges stopped short of a major war.
