The Shahid Afridi-led side will open their World T20 campaign with the match against a qualifier on March 16 and then face arch-rivals India. Both games are scheduled in Kolkata.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The green-shirts will then face Australia and New Zealand in Mohali.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&quot;The visa-issuing authorities have instructed me not to visit any other city except Mumbai and Delhi. Now in this very disturbing situation, I&#39;m thinking whether or not I should go to India, simply because [naturally] my first priority will be Kolkata and Mohali,&quot; Idrees said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">According to Idrees, the visa was issued on March 11, when Pakistan&#39;s match (against India) had already been shifted from Dharamsala to Kolkata, but visa for Kolkata\/Mohali was not issued to him.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Idrees emphasised it would be very difficult for him to manage the situation if the Indian High Commission did not assist him quickly, according to Dawn.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Agency.<\/p>\r\n\r\n<hr \/>\r\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&nbsp;<\/p>\r\n",
