The cricket board has given a tremendous statement. India will not tell how Pakistan played cricket and cricket in Pakistan also started after 10-15 years. I am a former player. I don’t know what is happening on the political field, but it is important to have a conversation. If you had to say Jai Shah sahib, you would have at least called our chairman and held a meeting of the Asian Council. If you give your idea, it will be discussed.

Wasim Akram didn’t stop there. He added, ‘You can’t just stand up and say that we are not traveling.’ Earlier, Pakistan’s legendary bowler Waqar Younis had also said that India-Pakistan wants to harm. He further said that more important than playing cricket is the dignity of the country.
The Asia Cup is scheduled to be played in Pakistan in September next year which will precede the ODI World Cup in India. On Thursday, Sports Minister Anurag Thakur said that the Indian team would need approval from the Home Ministry to travel to Pakistan. Frustrated by this, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Wednesday requested the Asian Cricket Council to convene an emergency meeting. The PCB said such statements could divide the Asian and international cricket communities and could also affect Pakistan’s visit to India for the 2023 World Cup.
