According to reports, the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) has threatened to pull out of the upcoming two-match Test series against Sri Lanka in June if Sri Lanka Cricket (SLC) opposes the proposed hybrid model for the 2023 Asia Cup. The proposed hybrid model suggests dividing the Asia Cup into two phases, with the first phase hosted in Pakistan and the second phase at a neutral venue. The model aims to address political tensions between Pakistan and India, as India would only participate in the second phase and would not play in Pakistan.
The PCB’s warning highlights their commitment to hosting the 2023 Asia Cup, albeit under modified circumstances. The situation emphasizes the need for flexibility and understanding when it comes to hosting international cricket, which requires navigating geopolitical challenges while preserving the spirit of the game.
It remains uncertain whether a resolution will be reached on this matter. However, it is clear that the PCB is taking a strong stance in support of the hybrid model, which aims to ensure the safe and successful hosting of the Asia Cup in 2023.
