Pak unlikely to send hockey teams to India

Pakistan will not travel to India for upcoming hockey tournaments over “security” concerns, government sources told AFP on Saturday, potentially jeopardising their place in next year’s World Cup.
The nuclear-armed neighbours traded the worst violence in decades during a four-day conflict in May that killed 70 people.
Pakistan was due to participate in the Men’s Asia Cup for field hockey to be hosted by India in August and September, for which the federation had sought the government's clearance.
Rana Mujahid, the secretary-general of PHF, admitted that in the past Pakistan had taken part in some international events in India. “But as of now the situation is different, relations are strained so we can only move forward when the government gives us clearance,” he said.
