Political tensions between Pakistan and India have put the national team’s participation in the Asia Cup and World Cup 2023 in question, with both boards currently unwilling to bow to each other.
The rights of the Asia Cup are with Pakistan, but the Indian board is refusing to send its team on the pretext of security as usual, while the Pakistan Cricket Board also wants to host the matches in its country, now the question is if India and Pakistan for the Asia Cup. If it does not come, will Pakistan boycott the Asia Cup and if it does, how much loss will it have to bear?
Yesterday, Chairman PCB Najam Sethi said in an interview that if Pakistan boycotts the Asia Cup, it may lose 3 million dollars (one billion rupees).
Similarly, if Pakistan refuses to go to India in an ICC event for the World Cup, then things may go bad with our International Cricket Council because there too the match between Pakistan and India is very important.
Najam Sethi said that earlier we were dependent on ICC and Asian Cricket Council, but now PSL has put us on our feet. PSL earns as much money as the International Cricket Council.
