The brawl that started on Asia Cup 2023 is not taking the name of ending. It was going to be hosted by Pakistan in the month of September this year. In view of this, the BCCI had long ago made its stand clear citing security arrangements that if Asia is organized in Pakistan, then India will not go to Pakistan at any cost to be a part of it. However, the BCCI had made it clear that the team could play all its matches outside Pakistan.
Hybrid model was rejected by these three countries -
After this it was thought of conducting Asia Cup 2023 on hybrid model, which has been rejected by Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan. After the hybrid model was rejected by these three countries, it is feared that Pakistan may withdraw from the Asia Cup to be held in September. According to the hybrid model proposed by PCB chief Najam Sethi, Pakistan was to have three or four Asia Cup matches at home, while India's matches could be played at a neutral venue.
All three countries have supported the BCCI -
However, it is now clear that Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan have all supported the Indian Cricket Board (BCCI) to hold the tournament outside Pakistan. A person with knowledge of the matter said. The source said, 'Now it is just a formality that the members of the Executive Board of the Asian Cricket Council (ACC) hold a meeting virtually or in the presence of the members.'
"However, the PCB is now aware that Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and Afghanistan are not supportive of its proposed hybrid model for the Asia Cup," he said.
