Former India opener Chetan Chauhan has said that India should put pressure on ICC to throw Pakistan out of the 2019 Cricket World Cup. Chauhan, who is now a cabinet minister in the Uttar Pradesh government, has also added that if India does not play in the event, it will be a huge loss for ICC.

In the aftermath of what happened at Pulwama in Jammu and Kashmir nearly a week ago, where 40 CRPF jawans were martyred and many were injured, many former Indian players and BCCI officials have come up suggesting India to boycott Pakistan during the upcoming World Cup. Former Indian cricketer and current UP Cabinet Minister Chetan Chauhan has now suggested BCCI to put pressure on ICC to 'throw Pakistan out of the World Cup’. Chauhan also made it very clear, how ICC will suffer a massive loss if India pulls out of the upcoming mega event.

"World Cup, Olympics is decided years ahead. We don't play bilateral series with Pakistan. The best thing to do is to throw Pakistan out of the World Cup. Every country is worried with the growth of terrorism in Pakistan. It's a problem for everyone. We should exert pressure on ICC to throw Pakistan out of the World Cup," Chauhan told Aaj Tak.

"If Pakistan do not play the World Cup, it won't make any difference. If India do not play, the ICC will suffer losses. India bring in 65 to 70 per cent of the sponsorship."
