Afghan Cricket Board promo maps PoK and Gilgit-Baltistan as India

The Afghan Cricket Board shared a promotional graphic on its official X account on Sunday that showed Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and Gilgit-Baltistan as part of India. The image appeared days before Afghanistan's three-match T20I series against India in New Delhi.

Pakistan officials condemned the map as a violation of territorial integrity and demanded its immediate removal. The incident has drawn diplomatic attention in both countries ahead of the bilateral series.

The series schedule remains unchanged despite the row. Afghanistan's last tour of India was in January 2024.
