IND vs PAK: BCCI rejected PCB chairman Najam Sethi’s proposal, said- no plan to play at neutral venue

India vs Pakistan: Bilateral cricket relations between India and Pakistan are suspended. Cricket teams from both countries compete only in ICC or continental tournaments.

Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) chairman Najam Sethi had proposed a bilateral Test series with India at a neutral venue. However, the BCCI has turned down his offer. According to news agency ANI, the BCCI has ruled out any such possibility in the future as well.

In an interview to the Sydney Morning Herald, Najam Sethi had said that he would be open to playing a bilateral Test series between India and Pakistan in Australia, England or even South Africa. Najam Sethi said, “Yes, I think bilateral Test matches can be played in Australia, England, South Africa, but I think the best venue would be England and then Australia.”

Najam Sethi said, ‘If you can get housefull in any stadium in Australia, well, that would be great.’ However, news agency ANI quoted a BCCI source as denying such a proposal. Pakistan media reported on 17 May 2023 that PCB chairman Najam Sethi has given the go-ahead for a possible Pakistan-India Test series at a neutral venue.

Uncertainty continues over venue of Asia Cup 2023

The last Test between India and Pakistan was played in December 2007. Meanwhile, uncertainty continues over the venue of the Asia Cup 2023. Najam Sethi is adamant that Pakistan is the host for the continental tournament. At the same time, the BCCI reiterated that if the Asia Cup 2023 is held in Pakistan, it will not send its men’s team to the neighboring country.

Najam Sethi told News9live.com, ‘Well, on the Asia Cup, it is very clear that if India refuse to come here to play and they reject the formula of the agreement that I had prepared, then When the World Cup will happen then we will ask our government.
