The BCCI team came to Pakistan to watch the Asia Cup matches while the Indian cricket team was denied permission to play in Pakistan. A four-member team, including BCCI president Roger Binny and vice-president Rajeev Shukla, reached Pakistan through the Wagah border. This is the first time a BCCI team is visiting Pakistan after the Mumbai terror attack. The BCCI had opposed India’s hosting of the Asia Cup matches between Sri Lanka and Pakistan in Pakistan. The Indian Cricket Board leadership responded that they are visiting Sri Lanka and Pakistan as host countries and there is no politics in the visit.
At the same time, due to the threat of rain in Sri Lanka, the Pakistan Cricket Board-Asia Cricket Council has proposed to move the next matches of the Asia Cup to Pakistan. Pakistan Cricket Board Chairman Sakha Ashraf has communicated on the telephone with the Asian Cricket Council President Jai Shah, Pakistani media reported. If the India-Pak match comes, it is suggested that Dubai be the venue.
