Breaking News INDIA-PAKISTAN OneDaySeries in December
- Thread starter SPANDAN
- Start date
According to Times Now, the BCCI has agreed in principle to invite the Pakistan cricket team.
The bilateral series will be resumed after five years.
The report comes after the Pakistan Board put forward three proposals to their Indian counterparts in a bid to resume bilateral cricket ties between India and Pakistan.
The Pakistan Cricket Board proposed that either India can tour Pakistan or play them in a neutral venue. The third proposal is PCB hosting their home series in India.
Resumption of Indo-Pak bilateral cricket ties, which was severed after the 2008 Mumbai terror attacks, received a shot in the arm after the foreign secretaries of both the countries expressed their willingness to have more sporting contacts between the two nations.
Things started looking bright after BCCI invited Pakistan's domestic champion outfit Sialkot Stallions to participate in the Qualifying Tournament of Champions League Twenty20 to be held in South Africa later this year.
Also during the recent visit of Ashraf to India and at the sidelines of last month's ICC and ACC meetings in Malaysia, the PCB chief had several meetings with BCCI president N Srinivasan.
Although both agreed to resume bilateral cricket ties, according to sources, the BCCI is not in favour of either India playing in Pakistan or at neutral venues.
