India stand to lose by boycotting Pakistan in the upcoming World Cup, feels Sunil Gavaskar, who said the country can continue to "hurt them" by shunning bilateral ties.

Calls for a complete cricketing boycott of Pakistan have grown ever since the terror attack in Pulwama last week killed more than 40 CRPF personnel. India are scheduled to play Pakistan on June 16. "Who wins if India decide against playing Pakistan in the World Cup? Pakistan win because they get two points," Gavaskar told India Today.
