18 Indian soldiers had lost their lives in the Uri attack, which was carried out by four terrorists who infiltrated across the LoC and entered India. 

India and Pakistan face each other only in ICC events, with the latest of them being the T20 World Cup match held at Eden Gardens. The last test between the two countries dates back to 2007, while in 2012 Pakistan toured India for a 3 ODIs and 2 T20Is.

BCCI have also debarred the Pakistan players from participating in the lucrative Indian Premier League (IPL).
