Srinagar: Four Kashmiri cricketers were arrested on Sunday in Jammu and Kashmir's Bandipora district for lining up as Pakistan's national anthem was played before the start of a cricket match.
After a video went viral showing the players' conduct in Arin village before the start of the match, police arrested the four.
Police said they were looking for the organisers of the match who arranged the shooting of the video.
