New Delhi: BCCI Secretary and Asian Cricket Council (ACC) Chief Jay Shah recently made it clear that Team India will not travel to Pakistan to play the Asia Cup 2023. In such a situation, the discussion of organizing this event on a neutral venue had started. After this statement of Jay Shah, his former cricketers including the Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) are furious. Let us tell you that international cricket has recently returned to Pakistan and some teams have also toured this country.

After this statement of Jay Shah, the former Pakistan cricketer is giving a sharp reaction. Many veterans have demanded a boycott of India, while some have said that Pakistan should also not go to India to play the 2023 ODI World Cup. Meanwhile, now the reaction of former fast bowler Wasim Akram has come to the fore. This former Pakistan player says that Jay Shah should have talked with the PCB chairman before making this statement, as well as the issue could have been resolved in a meeting. 

Akram said 'The Cricket Board has given a very strong statement, India cannot dictate how Pakistan should play cricket. Cricket has also started in Pakistan after 10-15 years. I am a former sportsperson and sports person, I do not know what is going on on the political front. But it is important to talk to people. If you had to say Jai Shah Sahab, you would have called our chairman at work and called a meeting of the Asian Council. You give your views, and it will be discussed.'
