Exactly, in intrinsic semiconductor equal number of holes and electrons are present (i.e Pairing of electrons and holes takes place) therefore there is no current flow.

Pure silicon is nothing but intrinsic semiconductor.
In intrinsic semiconductor number of electrons is equal to number of holes due to which no free electrons present no current conduction takes place in intrinsic semiconductors.
