In an important development before the ICC Women's World Cup, Pakistan has announced that it will not participate in the opening ceremony in Guwahati on 30 September 2025. Information about this decision came out from Pakistani news outlet Jio Super, although no clear reason was publicly shared.

According to reports, the step may be associated with a bilateral agreement between India and Pakistan, under which the two countries have decided to avoid crossing the border for ICC tournaments for the next three years. The purpose of this policy is probably to avoid logistic and diplomatic stresses. Sports relations between India and Pakistan have been sensitive for a long time; For example, India has not visited Pakistan since 2008, due to which such political conditions have been partially.

The opening ceremony assures to be a colourful event, which will be adorned with the performance of the famous Indian singer Shreya Ghoshal. After the ceremony, the Women's World Cup will begin with the match between co-magic India and Sri Lanka. Nevertheless, the absence of Pakistan with this event adds another layer already in complex relations. Fans, organizers and other teams will keep watching closely, hoping that the tournaments proceeded smoothly despite this diplomatic bottleneck.

This decision of Pakistan may reduce some immediate complications, but it also highlights the constant relationship between sports and politics. As the tournament goes ahead, many will hope that brotherhood and fair sports grounds on the field will dominate the uncertainty.
