BCCI Secretary Anurag Thakur said on Monday that the Board of Control for Cricket in India's talks with the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) will not go ahead.

PCB chief Shahryar Khan was supposed to meet new BCCI president Shashank Manohar to discuss the resumption of cricketing ties between the two countries.

But Shiv Sena activists barged into the BCCI headquarters in Mumbai, asking Manohar to cancel the talks.

"BCCI and PCB have some outstanding issues, and the PCB chief wanted to meet the BCCI president to discuss those things. But those have been cancelled now," said Thakur.
