Former India captain Sourav Ganguly strongly supported calls for India to sever all ties with Pakistan, including on the cricket field, after the recent terror attack in Pahalgam in Jammu and Kashmir, which took 26 lives.

"100 per cent, this [breaking ties with Pakistan] should be done. Strict action is necessary. It is no joke that such things happen every year. Terrorism cannot be tolerated," Ganguly recently told Indian news agency ANI in Kolkata.

India and Pakistan have not played a bilateral series since 2012-13 due to strained political relations between the two nations.

The arch nemesis have only faced off in ACC and ICC events since. And after the latest terror attack in Kashmir, which has been claimed by The Resistance Front, a proxy group linked to the Pakistan-based Lashkar-e-Taiba, the situation is unlikely to get any better in the near future.
