The Indian blind men's cricket team is currently awaiting crucial clearance from the government to participate in the upcoming T20 World Cup in Pakistan, scheduled to take place from November 23 to December 3.

A report by India Today has claimed that the Indian team has secured a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the Ministry of Sports; however, this clearance is conditional upon the approval of both the Ministry of Home Affairs (MHA) and the Ministry of External Affairs (MEA). As of now, the team has been in limbo, waiting for the necessary approvals for over two weeks.
