“India can go to hell if they don’t want to come to Pakistan to play cricket,” the 65-year-old stated at a latest public occasion. “I’ve all the time backed Pakistan. And you recognize that I don’t depart spare India each time a problem arises. But the factor is we have to take a look at our half. And we must always struggle for it. We don’t care as a result of we’re attending to host our cricket. This is ICC’s job. If ICC can’t management this there’s no use of the governing physique. They have to implement comparable guidelines for each group. If groups like these don’t come, they need to be debarred. India hoga, apne liye hoga. Hmare liye nahi hai.“

Following the Asian Cricket Council week final meet, the BCCI made their stand clear on the Indian group not travelling to Pakistan to play the upcoming Asia Cup. The cause behind being that it gained’t get ‘clearance from the Indian government’ to journey to Pakistan to play cricket owing to the diplomatic tensions between the 2.

Miandad nonetheless, feels that India not coming to play in Pakistan is owing to their worry of shedding to the latter of their nation.

He stated, “Come and play. Why don’t they? They run. For them it becomes a trouble if they come here and lose to us. The public there can’t stomach it. It’s always been the case. During our time, they used to not play because of the same reason. Riots and fighting take place there. The crowd there is very nasty. You would’ve seen whenever India loses, to anyone, the crowd there burns down houses. When we used to play, they had faced such troubles.”

“They are bet losers. The public there need to understand. Cricket is a sport. If you don’t play well, you deserve to lose. If I play well, I deserve to win. Rather you go into other things. What good is that? I say this to the ICC, if anyone does resort to such ways, ICC need to be strict. If you’re India, so what? If any country behaves this way, ICC need to take action. Such teams should be removed to learn a lesson.”

The Pakistan Cricket Board has been eager on internet hosting the 2023 ODI format Asia Cup and has pointed to worldwide groups touring the nation to guarantee gamers of security considerations following a decade lengthy hiatus owing to terrorist assaults in the course of the Sri Lanka tour of Pakistan. Teams like England, New Zealand and Australia have toured the nation over the past yr and performed Test cricket. PCB needs cricketing ties with the Indian group to renew like earlier, nonetheless, the BCCI appears to be reluctant to journey to Pakistan.

It is owing to BCCI’s stand that the event is prone to be shifted from Pakistan to elsewhere with PCB nonetheless retaining the rights to host the event as Sri Lanka did within the United Arab Emirates (UAE) final yr following unrest within the nation because of financial crises.
