No series has been played between India and Pakistan for the last several years. Now these two face face-to-face only in ICC and ACC tournaments. The condition is that both teams do not even go to each other’s house to play cricket. It has no effect on India, but Pakistan is upset. Pakistan looks very anxious to play the series from India. Maybe his wish will come true. There is going to be an ICC seminar this month, in which it can be discussed.
ICC seminar to be held in Dubai on September 22 and 23
An ICC seminar is scheduled to be held in Dubai on September 22 and 23. Earlier, the discussion about the series between India and Pakistan has started again. Actually, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) wants a tournament of three or four countries to be organized, in which India and Pakistan should be included. The venue of this series is also proposed to be neutral. The possibility of this series is being explored. This has been revealed through a report by ARY News. Now that there will be an ICC seminar, there can also be talk on the future tour program. The PCB is likely to talk about it. Obviously, it will include representatives from the ICC, India and Pakistan, as well as other countries.
India and Pakistan have not played a series since 2013.
The special thing is that the last mutual series between India and Pakistan was played in the year 2013. Since then, they have clashed only in ICC and ACC matches. However, it is not yet decided whether this series will be on T20 or ODI format. Apart from India and Pakistan, if one or two more teams join this tournament, then it will become a multination tournament. However, the ICC’s consent alone will not work. Pakistan is ready anyway, but the BCCI will have to get permission from the Government of India for this series.
The UAE, England and Australia could be the hosts.
The information that has come out so far has revealed that if this exercise goes ahead, then UAE, England or Australia can be selected for the host, which will be a neutral venue for both teams. Any match between India and Pakistan is a profitable deal, in such a situation, no country will give up the proposal to hold this series here. Now it remains to be seen whether this will be discussed in the seminar to be held on September 22 and 23. If so, does anything come out?
