Pakistan refuse to play ODI series in Sri Lanka after SLC's proposal to host entire Asia Cup 2023: Report

Firstpost  

The Pakistan Cricket Board has declined an offer from Sri Lanka Cricket to play a bilateral ODI series in the latter’s country in retaliation to SLC expressing a desire to host the entire Asia Cup. Pakistan are the designated host for the Asia Cup 2023 but India’s refusal to travel to the country for the tournament led to PCB chairman Najam Sethi proposing a hybrid model where a few games will be played in Pakistan and the rest outside the country. “It is a clear indication that the PCB is not happy with the Sri Lankan board stepping in to offer to host the Asia Cup in September when it is Pakistan’s turn to host the regional event at home,” the source said. “Sethi expected Sri Lanka with whom Pakistan has long had friendly relations, Bangladesh and Afghanistan to convince the Indian Cricket Board and other Asian Cricket Council board members to go with the proposal put by Sethi and at least play three to four games in Pakistan of the Asia Cup before moving the tournament elsewhere.” “He is disappointed at the way things have panned out in recent days especially when some of these board heads went to India for the IPL final and met with the BCCi secretary Jay Shah,” the source added.
